The Namibia Wildlife Sanctuary is the perfect place for you to live your dream whether your interests lie in helping orphaned or injured African wildlife, researching cheetah and leopard or making a difference to the medical welfare of the under privileged Bushman community.
The Sanctuary has 3 projects available to you: Wildlife, Research and Medical. The Wildlife and Research projects work hand in hand, so not only will you assist the project coordinators with caring for the large carnivores and various other species of African wildlife rehabilitated at the sanctuary, but you may also have the opportunity to research and release cheetah and leopard in the local area. In addition, depending on the length of your stay, you may be privileged to join our wild cheetah release and tracking project in the beautiful release site, Namib Rand Nature Reserve, located in the south of Namibia.
The Medical project can be booked as an individual project or it can be combined with the Wildlife and Research projects, depending on the length of your stay. The main aim of the Bushman Clinic is to provide accessible affordable primary healthcare to the people living in the region of Epukiro in the east of Namibia. If you are interested in volunteering at the Bushman Clinic, please contact us for additional information.
Namibia is a country blessed with breathtaking sceneries, magnificent vistas and the most diverse array of unique landscapes. Besides its beautiful land, Namibia is fortunate enough to possess healthy populations of wildlife; it is one of the few African nations where six species of large carnivores still occur: cheetah, leopard, lion, spotted hyena, brown hyena and wild dog.
At the Namibia Wildlife Sanctuary it is our vision to play a pro-active role in nature conservation because we believe that we hold this invaluable heritage in our trust for future generations. Threatened animals are rescued following a range of complete health check ups and are then cared for or relocated to suitable protected areas or other conservation friendly farms with the correct habitat and food chain.
