SOUTH AFRICA / Beela Gosasa
As a volunteer with Beela Gosasa you get the opportunity to work alongside greendogs, and help with the care, exercise and training of these highly trained dogs. The dogs are used to help collect information on wildlife without using evasive techniques, to help minimise the human impact on the environment.
We welcome open minded people with a passion for this, with ideas which we can trial to help us work towards sharing the land with wildlife and habitat. Farming here is not easy due to conditions being hot and dry and the high presence of predators and parasites. You will witness how invaluable the livestock guardian dogs are with the wealth of carnivores around.
We are based on a working farm and volunteers can take part in the various farming projects we run to make farming more eco friendly. All volunteers get the opportunity to visit Mapungbwe National Park and see the world heritage site. You will also get the chance to go preditor tracking in the localarea.
The experience we offer is one of really getting to grips with nature and making a difference to the enviroment.Internships are available and potential dog handles are welcome. Prices start from £700.00 for two weeks. Discount for longer stays and group bookings.
