Volunteer in South Africa and experience the unique opportunity to go behind the scenes of a working game reserve. This diverse landscape of the reserve allows for a range of African game including rhino, giraffe, zebra, buffalo, wildebeest, Eastern Cape kudu, African lions and elephants, to reside on the land. Due to the coastal setting of the reserve and the sub-sequential high rainfall on the Wild Coast, the reserve has a larger carrying capacity of game in comparison to reserves in lower rain fall areas. The reserve is therefore bursting with wildlife and in need of various programs to monitor and assess the game and conservation.
Volunteers will spend time on game drives and bush walks identifying species and monitoring the present game and other wildlife in the reserve. With over 10,000 hectares of land set over three conservation sites, volunteers are guaranteed that they will never get bored! You will get stuck in with general reserve maintenance tasks including fence patrols, field management and game capture, release and relocation.
