Day 13-17- Microchip a Rhino at Tswalu    

Set amidst two rolling mountain ranges, Tarkuni is the Oppenheimer family’s own personal home at Tswalu. But to take it up a notch for clients with keen interest in wildlife conservation (or simply those who have a healthy sense of adventure) Epic Road has launched a new signature experience that allows travelers to take part in one of the most sophisticated wildlife protection and anti-poaching operations on the planet.  Watch this amazing video to see Epic Road travelers working side by side with experts as they track and microchip Rhinos in the African wild.   The experience begins by locating and following a Rhino by helicopter or Land Rover, and ends in the bush as you are part of a team that notches, DNA tests and microchips the Rhino (allowing the animal and its horn to be tracked should it ever fall prey to poachers).   The opportunity to be in close proximity to such a prehistoric creature is magical, and the chance to be an active participant in saving one of the world’s greatest species is unprecedented.
