At Moholoholo, you'll have the chance to work hands-on with a huge variety of Africa's most iconic wildlife. Whether it's preparing meals for cheetahs, assisting in life-saving surgeries for leopards, or caring for orphaned bush babies with bottle feeding. At this project, you’ll gain invaluable experience in every aspect of animal rehabilitation.
Under the guidance of the experienced project staff, you'll step into the world of conservation efforts, and learn about the biology, ecology, and behaviour of the incredible species in your care. Your role as a volunteer is crucial in ensuring the successful rehabilitation and eventual release of animals back into their natural habitats. For those unable to return to the wild, you'll help provide a lifetime of care and comfort within the sanctuary.
Moholoholo welcomes up to 20 conservation volunteers at any given time! So, you'll be surrounded by like-minded volunteers in the heart of the African bush, forging lifelong friendships and creating unforgettable memories. This is a fantastic opportunity to contribute firsthand to the preservation of African wildlife, from majestic carnivores to soaring birds of prey. Join us and be a part of an experience full of purpose, learning, and exploration.
Since 1999, our organisation has empowered gap year travellers to work hands-on with Africa’s wildlife. As experts in conservation, we’ve helped thousands of volunteers gain skills for their university applications or future careers, all while creating gap year experiences that are anything but tame.
We’ve also supported those that are simply searching for a meaningful wildlife experience instead of the usual safari holiday. We do this by offering a variety of opportunities including being able to volunteer at wildlife care and rehabilitation centres to aid orphaned and injured animals; assist with wildlife conservation management in order to monitor priority species and contribute to vital research; and being able to live the life of an African wildlife vet while meeting the requirements for Extra Mural Studies (EMS) and Animal Husbandry Extra Mural Studies (AHEMS).
Together, we can create a brighter future for Africa’s wildlife.
