What did you think about your project?
I have had such a fantastic time and can't believe it has gone so fast. I miss it already!!!
What did you enjoy most?
I enjoyed all the hands on work with the monkeys and also stitching up a baby monkey to help it get better.
I also really enjoyed interacting with the family and all the volunteers.
|
What would you advise to other volunteers?
They must want to be involved and be willing to work and get dirty: Don't bring anything that you don't mind throwing away after!!! Ha!
Just be really enthusiastic and you will have an amazing time - really great.
What did you learn?
I learnt a great deal about Vervet Monkeys and primate care. I also learnt a lot about the political structure and situation of the country.
Any extra comments:
The job these guys do is amazing and I think that they have set an excellent example for other rehab centres and the general public. Thank you so much. |
