 African Nature Trail
The largest aspect of the venture, both in terms of effort and financial cost, was the reinforcement of the perimeter fence that was necessary before the introduction of small antelope species could begin.
Those species included: klipspringer (Oreotragus oreotragus), steenbok (Raphicerus campestris) and common duiker (Sylvicapra grimmia).
The enhancement of the perimeter fence not only allowed the introduction of these species, making the game park fauna more complete in its representation of native wildlife, but also provided the added benefit of creating more open exhibit spaces for future orphans that will inevitably make Chipangali their home.

 Klipspringer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Over US$180,000 has been donated since the drive began on 19 August.
The Klipspringer (literally "rock jumper" in Afrikaans), Oreotragus oreotragus, is a small African antelope that lives from the Cape of Good Hope all the way up East Africa and into Ethiopia.
Reaching approximately 58cm (22 inches) at the shoulder, klipspringers are relatively small animals compared to some of their larger antelope cousins.

 Terrestrial Ecoregions -- Jos Plateau forest-grassland mosaic (AT1010)
It harbors West Africa’s only population of klipspringer (Oreotragus oreotragus porteousi EN), as well as several endemic birds and mammals, including the rock firefinch (Lagonosticta sanguinodorsalis) and its brood-parasite, the Jos Plateau indigobird (Vidua maryae).
Some species in this ecoregion are also found in the Cameroonian Highlands to the east, suggesting the two areas were linked in the past.
The two bat species and the dark-eared climbing mouse are also found in the Cameroonian highlands, suggesting that there may have been a faunal and climatic link between these two areas in the past (Happold 1987).
