It is here, on the calcareous soils, that patches of karroid scrub veld are to be found on the Reserve. |
The primary purpose of the Tsolwana Nature Reserve is the conservation of a representative sample of the region's karroid landscapes, habitats, heritage and species. |
It is possible to estimate reliable current grazing capacities for any section of veld in the karroid areas at the moment. |
The natural vegetation is characterised by small karroid bushes, hardy geophytes, and succulents. |
The 5 species are endemic to karroid regions in the southwestern parts of South Africa. |
