The growing need for more detailed knowledge on intensive production of wildlife on small and
large reserves, provided the stimulus for producing this course. It is based upon extensive practical
experience and provides a detailed, theoretical insight into the requirements of setting up and
running a successful intensive wildlife production facility on game reserves and conservancies. Each
species is examined from their ecology, habitat and activity, behaviour, facilities, hand-rearing
calves, feeding in captivity, diseases and disease conditions, capture, transportation,
domestication, economics, legislation and management. If you are a reserve owner, conservancy,
wildlife or game farm manager; game ranger, game guide, game guard, trails guide or field guide
or merely have an interest in this field; this course is a logical and practical guide for you. The course
was written in conjunction with the renowned conservationists and environment scientists, Professors
J. du P. Bothma and N. van Rooyan.

Delivery and assessment of courses
All course content is available online but may also be downloaded in PDF
format (and easily printed), so you don’t have to be online to study.
All assessment is delivered entirely online and is automated. The assessment,
which we’ve called “take the test” (top right in each component), consists of
between 10 and 30 true/false and multiple-choice questions. There is one test
for each of the components of a course. Students may attempt these tests as
many times as required until they have achieved the passing mark. Once a test
is passed, it cannot be taken again.
