Volunteer with Animals in Africa

Famous for its Big 5, Africa is the quintessential destination for volunteering with animals! From research and surveying to up-close and personal encounters, our African projects allow volunteers to make a positive impact on various species throughout the continent. Volunteer at a wild cat sanctuary, work with orphaned chimpanzees, or engage in research efforts in Mozambique with whale sharks or in South Africa with great white sharks or lions! Whichever project you choose, you will have the opportunity to make a positive impact on Africa through its wildlife.

Volunteer in Malawi to aid wildlife rescue and rehabilitation at a renown sanctuary. Work hands-on with orphaned and injured animals affected by deforestation and illegal trade, contributing to their recovery and release back into the wild.

Join as a Pre-Vet Volunteer at one of Africa’s longest-running wildlife sanctuaries and rescue centers, with a special emphasis on pre-veterinary experiences! As part of the pre-vet program, volunteers will engage in activities centered around pre-veterinary care and education and will have the opportunity to work with a variety of animals, from monkeys to lions. No previous experience required.
