Hands-on work with endangered wildlife in South Africa
Duration: from 1.00 Weeks to 8.00 Weeks
If you’re a wildlife enthusiast who likes to surf, this is the project for you. You’ll help with hand feeding young animals, preparing food for the animals, general upkeep of the park enclosures and monitoring game on the reserve, with amazing beaches just a few miles away.Call: 0845 344 7592
The breeding centre was created with the intention of rescuing and treating injured or orphaned wildlife. Unfortunately, even after treatment some animals are unable to return the wild, so the park provides them with a safe home and lots of care.
You’ll be needed to help out with a whole host of different tasks; preparing food for the ever growing number of animals, bottle feeding the younger animals, cleaning out enclosures, get involved in the daily running of the centre, building new enclosures and checking fences to make sure the animals stay safe.
Please be prepared for the fact that you will sometimes be asked to help cut up meat for the feedings and also to help with basic maintenance duties such as weeding. Everything that happens is with the animal’s welfare in mind!
