Mantis backs Jessop run for Rhino's
World record holder, ultra-endurance athlete and conservationist, Sharon Jessop, set off on 22 September 2021, World Rhino Day, from Mantis Founders Lodge to undertake a 650km run and anticipates being on the road for 21 full days to remind South Africans that both the tourism industry and rhinos are equally endangered. Sharon is running through several Eastern Cape game reserves, including Mantis Founders Lodge, Kariega and Sibuya Game Reserves. The run starts from Mantis Founders Lodge, where it all began for wildlife conservation and tourism in the Eastern Cape due to Adrian Gardiner’s ambitious task to rewild the region to what it once was.
