OUT WITH THE OLD, IN WITH THE NEW AT JONKERSHOEK!

On 17 September 2024, Casidra signed off and handed over fencing projects for the first of five CapeNature Reserves, namely Jonkershoek Nature Reserve.

The project included replacing old fencing with new fencing and marking reserve boundaries to prevent land invasion.

These reserves are faced with several challenges, which include threats such as livestock and human encroachment.  Therefore, it is crucial to replace old fencing with secure barriers to preserve and protect the ecosystems and the species that inhabit these areas. 

The other four fencing projects, Ganzekraal Nature Reserve, Riverlands Nature Reserve, Hottentots Holland Nature Reserve, and Kogelberg Nature Reserve are expected to be completed during the following months. 

This will enable CapeNature to improve the monitoring thereof and protect the priceless natural resources throughout the reserve system.  Casidra was thanked for its invaluable assistance by CapeNature.
