Lion and black rhino monitoring

Program Description

Limpopo Eco Operations (LEO) monitors the wildlife on a private game reserve in South Africa near the renowned Kruger National Park. The reserve is closed to tourists, and is focussed on the rehabilitation of what was once farm land to a more natural state. LEO monitors the large carnivores and herbivores on the reserve, and as a volunteer you will help LEO locate and observe the lions, leopards, rhinos, and elephants, as well as helping with the maintenance of the reserve. Longer-term volunteers can help with data generated from the monitoring, and volunteers can help with the reserve's anti-poaching operations if they want.

During their time at the reserve, volunteers will closely experience the wildlife of southern Africa without the traffic of reserves focussed on eco-tourism, and help with the conservation of species such as the critically endangered black rhino, as well as learn about the sustainable management and use of the environment. At LEO, you will gain memories and experiences that will last a life time.
