Four lucky winners will walk away with a family ticket to World of Birds, each valued at R230.
For almost 40 years World of Birds has cared for over 3 000 species of birds, mammals and reptiles, from porcupines and foxes to monkeys and ostriches, and has become an establishment in Hout Bay. Their no kill policy permanently shelters hundreds a month and they’re open to the public 365 days a year. However, the effects of the recession have drastically reduced the popularity of the sanctuary as a tourist destination and a fun family day out. Since World of Birds relies solely on the income from ticket sales, their future is not secured.
A campaign, called Help feed the Birds was launched recently to raise awareness and carry across the simple message that, by visiting World of Birds, everyone contributes to feeding the birds. Watch a short Youtube clip here.
World of Birds is situated just on 4 ha of tropical gardens just 10km outside of Cape Town in the scenic Hout Bay Valley and is open 09h00 – 17h00 daily. Tickets are R75 for adults, R40 for children and R55 for students and pensioners. An annual family membership costs only R350. Help feed the penguins, pelicans, cormorants and birds of prey at various times throughout the day.
