Zebras, various species of antelopes and other wildlife roam freely at the Cradle Moon Conservancy in Muldersdrift outside Johannesburg, South Africa.

The 1,600-hectare conservancy consists of several farms, lodges and resorts, creating open spaces between the properties where the animal and plant life can thrive.

Among the animals seen in the conservancy are rhinos, elands, kudus, wildebeests, zebras, duikers, impalas – and South Africa's national animal, the springbok.

A dam at the conservancy offers a range of activities, including paddling and canoeing, while a walkway across a section of the water provides breathtaking views of the expanse.

Lanseria International Airport is a 15-minute, or 12-kilometer, drive from Cradle Moon, providing convenient access for visitors from further afield.
