About us

Welcome to Seronera Crocodile Farm, where our approach to crocodile farming is as unique as the creatures we care for. At our farm, we believe in providing our crocodiles with a natural and enriching environment, rather than traditional single-pen structures.

Situated in the heart of the South African bushveld, Seronera Crocodile Farm in Hazyview boasts a 1km riverbed, a 37ha farm with 7 breeder dams, 19 stock dams, and 14 hatchling enclosures, and approximately 15,000 resident crocodiles, with more dams in development. Seronera is a registered farm with the Mpumalanga Tourism and Parks Agency.

Here, our crocodiles live in spacious, integrated habitats that mimic their wild counterparts, promoting a sense of community and well-being. We understand that a happy crocodile is a healthy crocodile, and by allowing them to interact and roam freely, we ensure they thrive in their surroundings.

Every three months, a state visit is conducted to ensure that the farm meets all the requirements. These visits are crucial in maintaining high standards for animal welfare, safety, and environmental care with private vet inspections every 6 months.

You might not be aware that the Nile crocodile was once on the endangered species list. However, thanks to the development of responsible farming practices, these magnificent creatures have been removed from that list. Our farm plays a key role in this positive shift. By farming Nile crocodiles in captivity with care and respect, we contribute to their conservation while ensuring that our practices align with the highest ethical standards.

The farm features top-notch facilities and equipment, ensuring the quality and wellbeing of the crocodiles, as well as the comfort and safety of the visitors.

We’re more than just a business—we’re a family committed to excellence! With 14 dedicated staff members, some boasting over 15 years of experience, bringing expertise and passion to every aspect of crocodile care, our team ensures that each crocodile receives top-notch care, blending deep knowledge with a heartfelt commitment to their well-being. From habitat maintenance to health monitoring, their experience shines through everything they do.
