Letter from Nelson Mandela to Hans Hoheisen, responding to his gift of 14 500 ha of land adjacent to the Kruger National Park, the largest privately-funded donation of land in South Africa, to the WWF for conservation:
“On this day it is you who should be receiving gifts but instead – and it is a measure of your commitment to conservation and this country – you have presented the nation with a magnificent gift of enduring and immeasurable value.”
