If you are passionate about animals, especially monkeys
and want to make a difference in their lives, then volunteering at
International Primate Rescue is for you. The rewards and benefits are
two-fold, we give you an experience of a lifetime and you assist us
with the daily care of the animals.
As long as you are at least 18 years old you are
welcome. It doesn’t matter if you are looking for work experience,
a student on a gap year, want a break from your office job, are
retired, or you just want to get away from it all for a while. Join
us and experience a unique once in a lifetime opportunity!
Our volunteer program will give you a fascinating
wildlife experience whilst you learn about primate behavior and
animal care. You will get hands on experience with all the different
species of primates at the sanctuary. We currently have Capuchins,
Macaques, Squirrel monkeys, Mona monkeys, Tamarins,
Marmosets, Owl Monkeys and lemurs. But as cute as they are you also
need to be prepared to get down and dirty, as along with the pleasure
of interacting with our animals, their enclosures also need cleaning
and maintaining!
During your time with us you will get to know our staff
and work side by side with them. More importantly, you will get to
know our monkeys and all their different personalities. It is our
hope that when you leave us you have made lifelong friends with our
staff as well as your fellow volunteers, and that you walk away with
the fantastic memories of an unforgettable experience!!!
