Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation Guatemala
This project is an excellent opportunity to view and work abroad with sick or injured animals in Central America during your gap year or career break. The project focuses on the rehabilitation of native animals to Guatemala, with volunteers needed to play a central role in the day to day running of the centre.
You should consider working as a volunteer in Guatemala on this placement if you are interested in working with animals during your gap year and you are looking to have a worthwhile volunteer experience working and travelling Central America.
Volunteer Role
When volunteering, you will help feed and care for the animals at the centre which include parrots, macaws, spider and howler monkeys, margays, ocelots, coatimundis, taras and kinkajous. Nearly all of these animals have been seized from smugglers and are very young, needing constant care and attention.
There are also opportunities to take part in veterinary medical treatment, animal releases and wildlife surveys, though the scheduling of these activities is irregular and we can't guarantee you will be able to participate.
Project Location
Located 45 kms from world famous Mayan archeological site of Tikal.
