Lolulenga to reintroduce black rhino

Lolulenga Private Reserve in Northern Zambia is set to reintroduce black rhinos as part of its ongoing conservation programme.

Spanning 30 000 hectares in northern Kafue, Zambia, Lolulenga says the reserve is dedicated to large-scale ecological restoration through habitat rehabilitation, intensive anti-poaching initiatives and carefully managed species reintroductions.

Lolulenga has already successfully re-established cheetah and lion populations in the park. Three cheetah cubs were born in 2025 and a pair of captive-bred lions were introduced in April this year. The planned rhino reintroduction is part of the reserve’s broader ecosystem restoration programme.

“This is genuine regenerative conservation in action,” said Jennifer Beattie, Director of Sales and Marketing for Zambia Luxury Lodge Collection. “Lolulenga is not a conservation theatre. We are inviting our guests to experience something rare: a landscape that is still actively healing where every stay contributes to the recovery of a once-lost ecosystem. Guests are witnessing conservation not as a finished success story but as a living process unfolding in real time.
