Majete has been managed by African Parks since 2003, when the nonprofit conservation organisation entered into a public private partnership with the Malawi Department of National Parks and Wildlife. Since then, wildlife has been restored, the park has achieved big five game status, and tourism has increased. Birds include the African Finfoot, Böhm's Bee-eater, Egyptian Goose, and Racket-tailed Roller, as well as others in the Anseriformes order.
