A Gap Year, Year Out, Year Abroad, Sabbatical or Travel Adventure done with a purpose - to help protect the environment.
On African Soil recaps the best of 2014 with seven purposeful conservation features!
 
The focus of the Endangered Species Centre programme is on the cheetah and during the course participants are involved with the everyday care of the cheetahs.  
 
The Primate Sanctuary’s mission is to prevent the extinction of chimpanzees through conservation, research and education.  
 
The Living with Lions property has been split into two areas, the carnivore area and one area for the herbivores such as zebra, giraffe, and various plains antelope and other grass-eating animals. These indigenous animals roam around the area as freely as possible in their natural environment.  

As a Wildlife Rehabilitation volunteer you are involved in all the daily activities and work that goes on at the centre and on completion of your stay you go away with memories that will last a lifetime!  
 
Veterinary work is essential to the preservation and protection of rare and endangered species endemic to Africa.
