Shared Universe Ventures

Shared Universe will protect endangered species, in particular the rhinoceros. Rhinos are perhaps the nearest living reminders we have to dinosaurs. The thought of the next generation not being able to experience these magnificent animals is heartbreaking. Establish a game reserve, Mapesu Private Game Reserve, and helping to buy and restore hectares back to nature Save critically endangered rhinos Set up a buffalo breeding program Invest in and redevelop the Mopane Bush Lodge Offer visitors to our game reserve elephant safaris Adopt an elephant program Establish a Nature Academy Establish a business school and organize a volunteer program Since protecting, preserving and breeding rhinos is a relatively expensive proposition, the fund has created a number of commercial activities around it. These include additional tourist activities (increase capacity of the existing Mopane Lodge) as well as an elephant experience (including elephant safaris and elephant encounters). In addition there will be commercially viable educational projects (including the “Nature Academy”), veterinarian projects and commercial breeding projects (eg: establishing a buffalo breeding herd). The fund will also engage in social study projects, where we will also be inviting Vietnamese and Chinese scientists to study rhinos, to increase the knowledge about rhinos and to demystify the perceived medicinal value of its horn. Shared Universe will also: Create approximately 100 jobs Train local staff for almost all available positions Increase tourism attractions in the Northern Limpopo area Create opportunities for Corporate Social Responsibility (our “rent a charity” concept). Investors have access to the Game Reserve, and can participate in various corporate sponsorship activities. Create a small medical post locally Protect and rehabilitate other wildlife (veterinarian services for wounded animals)
