Walk in the footprints of elephants, learn how to relocate rhino, then get to grips with wildlife monitoring cameras… As a volunteer field researcher, you’ll spend your days exploring Africa’s untamed wilderness and your evenings sharing stories around the fire.
Why choose this experience?
We partner with research teams in some of southern Africa's most spectacular ecosystems. From the wilderness of the Okavango Delta and the mountainous sand dunes of the Namib desert to a groundbreaking wildlife reserve in South Africa owned by the local community.
Wherever you choose to go, you'll find yourself coming face-to-face with Africa's famous wildlife and rubbing shoulders with some of the region's leading conservationists.
If you've ever dreamed of working up-close with Africa’s wildlife or want to gain experience in a real game reserve, volunteering as a wildlife researcher is for you. You’ll work alongside leading conservationists and learn about habitat improvement, tracking animal movement, poaching prevention and more.
