That way, everyone is left satisfied and nobody is short-changed.

April 7, 2021 Johannesburg, South Africa (Press Release) – Life-saving animal sanctuaries all over South Africa rescue and rehabilitate orphaned, injured or confiscated animals. They're safe havens for elephants, lions, rhinos, chimps, monkeys, birds and reptiles. This month, Springbok Casino salutes the heroes at shelters from Limpopo to the Western Cape. Sadly, not all sanctuaries have the animals’ best interests at heart.

"A big red flag is the promotion of lion cub petting," said Springbok's manager, Daniel van Wyke. "These places aren't sanctuaries. They're breeding and exploiting animals for profit!"

There’s lots of fun to be had at parties that have pinatas as part of the entertainment. We’re talking about those Mexican inspired containers filled with lots of goodies. If you’re lucky enough to smash it open, the gifts are yours to keep! Now imagine combining the excitement of pinatas with a slot game themed on a pinata party!

Springbok Casino is inviting you to take a swing on its brand-new game to hit the games lobby, Jackpot Pinata Deluxe. It may not be filled with sweets and delicacies, but there is still the potential to land big rewards of another kind. Trust Realtime Gaming to come up with another reel-smashing, rewarding slot!
