The Khama Rhino Sanctuary is a community-based wildlife project established in 1992 to assist in saving the vanishing rhino. Other objectives of the sanctuary include restoring an area formerly teeming with wildlife to its previous natural state, and provide economic benefits to the local Batswana community through tourism and the sustainable use of natural resources.

These include zebra, blue wildebeest, giraffe, eland, springbok, impala, gemsbok, kudu, steenbok, duiker, red hartebeest, leopard, ostrich, African wild cat, caracal, small spotted genet, black-backed jackal, bat-eared fox, and brown hyena.
