Over het programma

INTERNSHIP - Veterinary / Animal Science / Wildlife Biology / Wildlife Management

  • Game capture: Help with game capture 
  • Injured animals: Help treat and look after the sick and wounded animals
  • Administration: Help with day to day administration
  • Clinic: Cleaning of the clinic, equipment
  • Game Count: Herbivores of all sizes are an integral part of African ecosystems. It is creatural to understand local ungulate population dynamics and migrations to ensure enough water supply.  At the same time, ungulate populations need to be assessed against the available vegetation to avoid damage to the ecosystem, for example from overgrazing. The volunteers will participate in regular game counts on either horseback, in the hide at the waterhole or by car to assist these monitoring efforts.  Muller Stud is home to large herds of Oryx (gemsbok), Kudu, Eland, Sable, Water Buck, Springbuck and many more, but also contains fewer known species such as the Dik-Dik, Klipspringer etc.  Ostrich populations will also be counted.
  • Camera Traps: This resource is also vital to the reserve and helps with identification as well as continuous monitoring of wildlife populations we also rely on motion-triggered camera traps.  Because the cameras record data 24/7 and every day of the year, they often capture information that humans might have missed. The cameras are non-selective and therefore capture data on all wildlife that pass in front of them, be they carnivores, herbivores, birds or others. This helps the researchers assess which species are present, and where they are most active, especially for animals that are usually very cryptic or entirely nocturnal such as the Hyena’s, Cheetahs and even the Bush babies. The cameras are non-invasive and sometimes record interesting behavioral data that we would otherwise have no access to. Volunteers will help set cameras in the field (for example at water points, cheetah marking trees, caves etc.), maintain them (refresh batteries and memory cards) but also go through the abundance of images to assess and structure the data recorded.

2020 at Wildlife Conservation Research Internship

From being a kid I always wanted to go to Africa, and later on I decided that I want to become involved in conservation work. I got the chance to do a four month internship here, and I had an amazing time! I now work and live in Namibia, and I regularly come back to the farm. It's very nice to see ...
In August 2018, I came to visit my sister, Clemence, who had been volunteering at the Farm for some months. I was firstly amazed to discover the Farm environment and the so many animals living at the Farm. But soon after, what amazed me even more, was the passion in every member of the Farm. ..
In 2019 I conducted a 4,5 month internship at MullerStud. Being here was an amazing experience! The people are all welcoming, helpful and very kind. Besides of only doing my research for my study Applied Biology, I also helped out a lot on the farm with the wildlife. Living in the student-house is ...
