Gibbons, macaques, slow loris, porcupines, civet cats, and other animals need care at this rescue center. The center is home to over 100 animals who have been injured or abused, as a direct result of human actions and habitat destruction. As well, the center runs education programs to teach locals and visitors about the importance of protecting and conserving wildlife in Thialand.
What you'll do
As a volunteer working with the animals, youll have many different duties. These include preparing food, feeding the animals, cleaning and enriching enclosures, and maintaining the site, and collecting data about the animals and their health. Youll also be asked to join the centers education programs to teach the public about issues facing wildlife. The rescue center is right near a beautiful beach, which youll be able to enjoy in your free time and days off.
*Please note that a large portion of your volunteer placement fees will go towards operating and maintaining the rescue center.
