Wildlife Sanctuary Volunteer

If your passion is helping to save and protect endangered
wildlife species in South Africa this is the project for you.
Located between Port Elizabeth and Jeffreys Bay is the Sanctuary, a
beautiful haven for unwanted, abandoned and injured animals. The
sanctuary is also a breeding centre for endangered species for
future generations to enjoy. Next to the sanctuary is a 1000 hectare
game reserve which you will also have the opportunity to experience.
THE
PROJECT:
This Project assists the Animal Rehabilitation Centre between Port
Elizabeth and Jeffreys Bay with the daily care and funding to feed
and care for orphaned and abandoned animals, some of which are
injured. Volunteers are crucial to the sanctuary, giving much needed
support to the small permanent team with their practical help and
funding. A successful breeding program for endangered species has
been introduced for Cheetah, Blue Duiker and Servals with all three
female Servals at the centre giving birth this Spring.
We stayed at 'African Dawn' -
it was an amazing experience, and although we were only here
for a short time we learnt so much and saw so many animals
and birds that you definitely don't see at home. the staff
at the project were so welcoming and friendly and the
hospitality and food was brilliant. There are lots of other volunteers from many different
cultures and you get to learn so much. The experience was
definitely life touching and we will always remember our
time on the project. we really had a fun week!!!! Kerry
