Andrew H.
started this petition to
Mogale City Local Municipality
Please sign this petition to help to convince the Mogale City Council that they should not allow development to destroy the very ridges that create the sense of place and allow wildlife to survive in urban areas.

These ridge areas are listed as a Critically Endangered Ecosystem, much of the area is listed as "Irreplaceable site" by Gauteng Provincial Nature Conservation Dept. The Krugersdorp portion is home to a rare orchid which represents the last known population of the species on earth. In addition to the above the world renowned breeding pair of Black Eagles resident in the Walter Sisulu Botanical Gardens, use these ridge areas for hunting and raising their young.
