Question 1

Is the Rooiels coexistence model unique?

Claire · Accepted Answer

As far as we know, there is no other suburb in South Africa which has so successfully embraced and demonstrated the concept of sharing space with local wildlife.

It works because the whole community acts every day to live out conservation values. Rooiels residents have adapted their lifestyles and behaviours in order to make coexistence possible.
