The aim is to rehabilitate and return them to the wild, from lions and leopards to monkeys, antelope, reptiles and birds. Animals are also studied for educational purposes, zoological study or in the case of endangered species, introduced to breeding programmes. Volunteers roles are so important, to help with general upkeep of the animals, to care for the sick and orphaned and help research and releases. This is a project that benefits animals and the local community alike, and you can be part of that change.
