Volunteer in South Africa’s first captive elephant research unit situated in an indigenous park between Knysna and Plettenberg Bay on the picturesque Garden Route. You have the opportunity to add to the sparse research on captive elephants globally with respect to their welfare and husbandry by volunteering in areas such as research collection and collation, marketing, functions, maintenance, training, guiding and education. The field work involves long hours and is not for the faint-hearted. However, the rewards are many – especially when the elephants begin to trust you and you become one of the herd!
This hands-on volunteer programme exposes you, the volunteer, to lion the king of the jungle, timid leopards, clumsy rhinos, graceful elephants and the mystic buffalo that make up the big five near port Elizabeth
