Looking for a “unique and meaningful” Christmas present for a loved one? An animal rehabilitation centre might have just what you need.

In its appeal for sponsorships for animals, the Centre for Rehabilitation of Wildlife (Crow), a non-profit, has created the sponsoring of an animal project to assist with the upbringing of four black-backed jackal pups that were rescued in September.

The two male and two females pups are amongst the over 400 injured and orphaned animals that have been rescued and admitted to the Crow centre over the past six weeks. They were discovered by cane cutters on a sugarcane farm in the Empangeni area after their den collapsed. After waiting to see if their mother would return, the farmer contacted Crow’s local depot where assistance was on hand.
