Wildlife rescue program in the Amazon

This program is based in the Ecuadorian Amazon. Its main objective is to protect the wildlife of the region. The volunteers will support the work of a Rescue Center and will help providing the best care and living conditions to rescued animals who lived in captivation and semi captivation until their re-introduction to their original habitat. The animals that come to this Rescue Centre are often confiscated in the Police controls by order of the Ministry of Environment, they were victims of illegal traffic, or lived as pets. Some of them were brought to the Rescue center, but the majority of them were abandoned by their "owners".

Language: English / Spanish

Duration of the project: The program is running all year round. Minimum stay is 4 weeks.

Accommodation: The program offers accommodation in a house just for the volunteers, with kitchen, dinning room, living room, and a phone cabin to receive calls. Lodging is in single, double and triple bedrooms.
