Cape Town - The Cape of Good Hope SPCA has filed an application with Cape Nature for permission to capture and translocate beloved Kommetjie baboon Kataza to a wildlife rehabilitation centre in Limpopo.
This followed a meeting between the City and the Cape of Good Hope SPCA on Tuesday last week to discuss welfare concerns associated with Kataza (SK11), his lack of integration with his natal troop and continued raiding behaviours.
“The Cape of Good Hope SPCA confirmed at this meeting that should the situation not improve, they will submit an application to CapeNature, as the mandated authority in terms of the Nature Conservation Ordinance, for a permit to have SK11 translocated to a rehabilitation centre where he can be released back into the wild, once he has been rehabilitated,” said the City.
