    À propos du programme

    Wolves in Portugal face significant challenges due to habitat destruction and human persecution. Many wolves cannot survive in the wild after becoming dependent on humans.

    • Hands-On Care: Assist with feeding the wolves and ensuring they have access to clean water.

    • Animal Monitoring: Observe and monitor wolf behavior to ensure their well-being.

    • Environmental Efforts: Participate in clearing invasive species, replanting native trees, and maintaining the forest environment.

    • Facility Maintenance: Help with the upkeep of the center’s infrastructure and contribute to fire prevention efforts.

    Daily Tasks:

    • Feeding: Provide meals and check water for the wolves.

    • Observation and Monitoring: Watch and record wolf behaviors and health indicators.

    • Invasive Species Clearing: Remove non-native plants and replant native species.

    • Maintenance: Assist with the maintenance of the center’s facilities and infrastructure.

    • Forest Cleaning: Participate in activities to maintain a healthy forest environment.

    Community Living:  You will be staying in comfortable wooden cabins at the center, with guidance and support from local staff, taking this experience to the next level!
