SOUTH AFRICA / GVI
Witness nature in its simplest form, from watching a lion kill to a newborn cheetah cub play, to a stand-off between two elephants. In the African bush you can never tell what you will find just around the corner…
Travel to the home of the Big Five in the South African bush, assisting our team’s important conservation research.
This project gives you a real and unfiltered look into Africa’s incredible iconic wildlife. But unlike a tourist safari, you play an active and meaningful role in the research and long term conservation of South Africa’s natural resources in this stunning region of the world.
You will volunteer alongside an international team to collect vital behavioural data on reintroduced predators and large herbivores on a private game reserve. In order to assist with this vital conservation work you will be trained to use research equipment to help locate predators in the reserve and you will receive invaluable training in large animal identification, tracking and behavioral study skills.
No special skills or qualifications are required to join this program, as all training will be provided by our fully qualified field teams. All we ask is an enthusiasm to learn and become fully involved and immersed in this unique opportunity.
Your hard work will not be without its rewards however, as you top off your African adventure in style with a 4-day safari in Kruger National Park.
