Animal Orphanage, Wildlife sanctuary in Mugumo-ini ward, Kenya.
The Animal Orphanage provides specialized care and rehabilitation for injured, abandoned, and distressed wild animals within Nairobi National Park's natural environment.
The facility was established as part of Kenya Wildlife Service's response to increased cases of wildlife requiring rescue and rehabilitation in the Nairobi region.
The sanctuary functions as an educational center where local students and international visitors learn about Kenya's indigenous wildlife through guided presentations.
Located 8 kilometers from Nairobi's center, the facility maintains different entry fees for residents and non-residents, with adults paying USD 22 and children USD 13.
The Animal Orphanage operates a Mountain Bongo breeding program to prevent the extinction of this rare antelope species native to Kenya's mountain forests.
