S.A. Lombard Nature Reserve (original) (raw)
S.A. Lombard Nature Reserve is around 20 km west of Bloemhof, North West, South Africa, and lies around 1,200 m above sea level. The area receives around 380–500 mm of rain every year, mostly between November and April. In the summer, the temperature reaches as high as 27 °C, and in the winter, it reaches as low as 10 °C. In June and July, temperatures sometimes fall below freezing. The reserve is around 46 km² and is fairly flat and almost treeless. The area is divided into a western and an eastern half. On the border between them is an area where diamonds were mined around 1920. Farmed by mules during World War II, the area was taken over by the Nature Conservation Branch. In 1954, the region became a reserve. The reserve played a major role in preserving the population of black wildebee
