About The Project
The Wildlife Rescue Centre
The Wildlife Rescue Centre Jogja is located in West Yogyakarta, Indonesia, and is surrounded by acres of tropical forest. Founded in 2010 the centre began taking in animals who are victims of illegal wildlife trafficking. Consequently, there are now more than 150 animals at the Centre. Learn more about the project and its impacts in 2019.
Wildlife Rescue Centre’s Goal
The goal of the Centre is to release as many animals back into the wild as possible. However, sadly, this is not always possible. Many animals at the animal care volunteer project are not native to Java. Therefore, they must first be translocated to rehabilitation centres in their native home. Hence, for those animals the Centre is a halfway house.
What Will I Do?
You will help with activities such as enclosure cleaning and enrichment. By doing so, you will be helping the animals on their rehabilitation path. This is because, enrichment is important to maintain natural behaviours that they will need in the wild. You are helping some 150 animals on their journey back to the wild!
