Wild animal protection

, South Africa

This experience taught me a lot about wildlife protection and made me aware of how animals are treated by humans, whether through poaching or those who keep them as pets.

Wild animal protection

Mahé’s Experience in South Africa for Wildlife Protection …

What this experience brought me…

This experience taught me a lot about wildlife protection and made me aware of how animals are treated by humans, whether through poaching or those who keep them as pets.

It helped me confirm my career goal to become a veterinarian for wild animals and work in reserves like this one, and to continue volunteering in various places.

My tasks mainly included cleaning and maintaining the enclosures, as well as preparing and feeding the animals.

Do I recommend this project…

Yes! Because it’s an incredible opportunity to get close to and see animals like these up close.

It’s impressive, you also meet great people and the atmosphere is awesome!

… and Freepackers?

Yes! I actually already have, and many of my friends became interested after seeing my Instagram stories:)
