Painted Dog Conservation Centre

The Painted Dog Conservation Centre is situated just outside the boundary of Hwange National Park. Very dedicated people are working in an unprecedented manner with multiple approaches to protect the critically endangered African wild dog.

Painted Dogs, also known as African Wild Dogs, are unique to Africa and they are among this continent's most endangered species. It is estimated that less than 7,000 remain in the wild. The Painted Dog population in Zimbabwe is one of the last strongholds of the species and we are committed to their conservation.
