In this game reserve you will be able to find all the big 5 animals (lions, leopards, elephants, buffalos and rhinos) as well as crocodiles, snakes, giraffes and ostriches.
The game reserve existence is mainly due to the fact that these animals are in risk and they need to be protected. As a volunteer you will be willing to get your hands dirty and work as part of the team, going on game drives, taking care of the land and the animals that live in the game reserve.
