Assist with research and education at this leading Crocodile Centre
This is an exceptional gap year project for anyone interested in animal conservation. This Crocodile Centre houses more than 2,500 crocs as well as a number of snakes and amphibians in an area along the Tamil Nadu coast. It runs educational and awareness programmes and works with many schools in the local area and has a well-stocked library for anyone interested in reading up on crocs and snakes.
Your Role:
Since its inception, the centre has supplied over 1500 animals and hundreds of eggs for restocking and breeding programmes in various crocodile states in India.
There's always plenty of work to be done at the centre so expect to be kept busy with a variety of tasks such as:
Feeding the animals, cleaning out and maintaining the croc enclosures.
Helping with research projects and collecting data.
Supporting the environmental awareness camps with local children, giving presentations and demonstrations.
Acting as a visitor guide, giving day and night-time safaris, and supervising visitors when they are handling the baby crocs or the friendly pythons.
This is a great project for volunteers intending to study conservation, zoology or other related disciplines, but it's open to everybody with an interest in wildlife or conservation.
What you Gain:
This is a unique opportunity for anyone intending to study conservation, zoology or related disciplines or someone already in those fields wanting to see a project in depth. It's also a great location for exploring Tamil Nadu - you can easily get into Chennai if you fancy a night out or down to Mahaballipuram for a relaxing weekend on the beach. Of course, you?ll make some great animal and human friends too!
