Tembani Wildlife celebrates 30 years of rare game breeding excellence in 2026

“Quality is the best business plan”
– John Lasseter, Pixar


While Tembani Wildlife isn’t in the movie business, this is the business plan that it prescribes to. The Mortons’ operation spans over 30 years (it all began in 1996) and they have always had one goal in mind: to produce ever better quality animals, year on year. Tony and Richard Morton privately own Tembani Wildlife, a 4400 hectare private game reserve situated 25km from the town of Thabazimbi in the Limpopo Province. They are known in the industry for their honesty and integrity. Steve Jobs once said: “The only way to do great work, is to love what you do”. In this regard, the Mortons are on a winning wicket.

Tembani Wildlife’s breeding operations focus on genetics and ‘stud’ potential. The Mortons believe that superior stock results in animals of distinction and their farming practices reflect this. New genetics are continually being introduced and only the best mother stock is used. Their track record also reflects this belief. A prime example is one of their young Sable bulls named Tony. Tony is one of Tembani’s first generation Deuce sons bred on the farm. He’s only just reaching 6 years of age and is already measuring over 55”, with more room for growth. This success is all down to Tembani Wildlife’s winning formula and practices.

Tembani Wildlife breeds a wide variety of species ranging from Impala all the way through to Buffalo.
While Tony and Richard are full-time, hands-on farmers, they also employ the expertise of Marnis Moolman. The team is passionate about the industry and firmly believes in operating with the highest of standards and integrity that their clients have come to expect from Tembani Wildlife.

Prospective buyers are encouraged to visit Tembani Wildlife and see for themselves.


 


As a proud member of Stud Game Breeders ®, Tembani is an integral part of the game industry, intent on empowerment, conservation and sustainability of game in our country. Tony and Richard look forward to welcoming you on Mount Joy Farm.

Tembani is proud to be the new owner of Ngeny, who hails from Alden Buffalo. Ngeny is a well-balanced, masculine bull with an impressive spread of 53 7/8”. Ngeny is from the Kenyan proven line and has produced six 50” sons out of just twenty bull calves. We are very excited to have him contributing to our breeding programme and look forward to seeing the results of the combination of Ngeny with our home bred animals.
