Elephant Whispers Volunteering
Project |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
|
|
|
This project offers the opportunity to work on both
community based projects and wildlife based
projects, during intensive 14-day, 28-day, 42-day
and 56 day programmes. |
|
|
|
The program focuses on the Conservational aspects of
running the conservancy and wildlife in conjunction
with the community, the animal husbandry aspects of
looking after the elephant, horses and cattle as
well as the Community projects. |
|
|
|
Running the conservancy will require that students
participate in activities such as anti-poaching
patrols, fence patrols, bush clearing, maintenance
of infrastructure, research on wildlife and flora
within the reserve and at times game capture and
release. |
|
|
|
This course is very hard work, but offers reward and
a BIG sense of achievement! |

Participants will undertake daily game drives to
capture data on the wildlife population of the
reserve - which has all of the Big 5 as well as many
other interesting species, including honey badgers
and civet cats. Other conservation activities
include vegetation studies and alien vegetation
removal. |

Accommodation is in our atmospheric bush camp with
stunning views across the savannah even from the
shower! The camp is unfenced, allowing unrestricted

|

The Chimpanzee Sanctuary Training Course runs for a
minimum of one week. Monthly courses are also
available. Courses begin every first Monday of each
month. To attend our course, volunteers must be at
least 18 years of age. Prior experience or education
in this field is not necessary.
For the first week of the course you will receive
one lecture per day, which focus on the history of
chimpanzees in Africa, chimpanzee diet and behaviour,
environmental education and sanctuary management.
The main emphasis of your volunteer work will be on
chimpanzee behaviour monitoring. Due to health and
safety precautions, there is no chimpanzee handling
for volunteers. |

Horse & Conservation Course |
 |
|
|
|
The horse and conservation course is for anyone who
has a passion for horses and wants to experience and
learn about the African bush. You will spend your
days caring for and riding the horses on the reserve
amidst plentiful game, whist also taking part in a
well-structured and extremely informative equine and
conservation course. This will teach you all you
need to know about the African wildlife and
conservation, together with the vital aspects of the
equine care |
|
|
|
The project is geared to a relaxed outdoor lifestyle
where people, wildlife and horses mix freely in the
African wilderness. They have a ‘work hard, play
hard’ attitude. Many volunteers return each year,
and they have employed two previous volunteers
permanently on the farm to help support the
programme. |
