The vulture feeding experience offers a rare opportunity to witness endangered white-backed, hooded and lappet-faced vultures gathering in remarkable numbers, a sight becoming increasingly uncommon across Zimbabwe. This conservation initiative also occasionally attracts majestic marabou storks to join the feast. You can observe this daily event free of charge, although donations are warmly encouraged to support the vital preservation of these magnificent birds. The experience begins with an informative briefing from an expert guide on the viewing deck, followed by the distribution of meat and bones collected from local hotels to the feeding area. The feeding typically occurs around 1pm, with the sudden arrival of dozens of vultures creating a dramatic and educational display of nature's clean-up crew in action. This unique program not only provides incredible photo opportunities but plays a crucial role in protecting Zimbabwe's vulnerable vulture populations.
