Veterinarian Student Internship
Over the last couple of years we had many veterinarian students conducting their internships with us. Many of these students had the opportunity to work with a veterinarian on the reserve. The type of work depends on what needs to be done at the specific time on the reserve. These students will assists with game capture and/or immobilization. We also offer a specialist Wildlife Rehablitation course during this internship. Please read some of these student’s testimonials about their experience with us on our Home Page.
Ecological studies / Environmental Management Internship
Natural ecological systems function because various biotic and abiotic factors that are interlinked with each other. A great diversity of natural habitats give rise to a large diversity of wild animals on the Game Reserve, both large and small. These students learn how some of these ecosystems function and can see some of these practically.
They can visualize some of the natural associations that different species have with one another and how these relationships may influence each individual. They learn and understand population dynamics of keystone species, management aspects of mega-herbivores and large predators and management issues that reserves face with the conservation of these species. This is the ideal conservation volunteer project.
If people can better understand what limits some of these species, managers and owners of land will be able to conserve these species more effectively as natural areas becomes smaller and more fragmented.
Our Mission
To give students and people eager to learn more about Africa’s wildlife the chance to experience of Africa’s most iconic species and reserves. Educate ecological and Conservation aspects for ecosystems functioning awereness.
