Join the Heartbeat of Kanyana
Rewarding Volunteer Opportunities
At Kanyana Wildlife, our mission to rescue, rehabilitate, and conserve wildlife is made possible through the incredible dedication of our volunteers. They are the lifeblood of our organisation, taking on a wide range of essential roles that keep our operations running smoothly and effectively. From hands-on animal care in our hospital to behind-the-scenes administrative tasks, every volunteer contributes significantly to our cause.
In the hospital, volunteers play a crucial role in the daily care of injured and orphaned wildlife. They help with feeding, cleaning, and providing medical treatment. This hands-on experience is both challenging and rewarding, offering volunteers a chance to make a direct impact on the lives of the animals we care for.
Become a Volunteer
If you’re passionate about wildlife and interested in joining our team, we invite you to register for our next information night. This session will provide you with a comprehensive overview of what it means to be a Kanyana volunteer, including the different roles available, the training provided, and the commitment required. It’s a fantastic opportunity to meet our team, ask questions, and see if volunteering with us is the right fit.
For those who wish to help but can’t commit to regular volunteering, we offer regular training courses. These courses are designed to equip you with the knowledge and skills to support wildlife in your own community, whether you’re able to volunteer with us or not.
Kanyana thrives because of the dedication and hard work of our volunteers. Whether you’re able to give your time, participate in training, or provide financial support, there are many ways to get involved and help us save wildlife. We welcome you to join our community of passionate conservationists and make a real impact.
Administrative
Administrative volunteers are equally important, handling tasks such as data entry, fundraising, and community outreach. Their efforts ensure that our operations are efficient and that we can continue to grow and reach more people with our message of conservation.
Resident
Our resident team focuses on the well-being of our resident animals, creating stimulating environments that mimic their natural habitats and promote natural behaviors. This not only improves the quality of life for our animals but also prepares them for potential release back into the wild.
Education
Education volunteers engage with the public, teaching people of all ages about wildlife conservation and the importance of protecting our native species. Through school visits, guided tours, and community events, they inspire a new generation of wildlife enthusiasts and advocates.
Maintenance
Maintenance volunteers keep our facilities in top shape, ensuring that our enclosures, equipment, and grounds are safe and well-maintained. Their work is vital for the safety and comfort of both our animals and our human team.
Transport
Transport volunteers provide a critical service by safely relocating animals between rescue sites, veterinary clinics, and our facility. Their efforts often mean the difference between life and death for injured wildlife.
Rehabilitation
As a wildlife rehabilitator at Kanyana Wildlife, you will play a hands-on role in caring for injured or displaced animals. This rewarding role allows you to work closely with a variety of native species, gaining valuable skills in animal care while experiencing the joy of helping wildlife return to their natural habitats. Whether you’re assisting with feeding, monitoring health, or preparing animals for release, every task contributes to giving them a second chance at life.
