African Conservation Experience-Tuli Conservation Project
Country:
Botswana
Continent:
Africa
Program Description (long):
The Tuli Conservation Project gives volunteers the opportunity to closely study 3 of Africa’s famous ‘Big 5’ species; the majestic African Elephant and the secretive Leopard and wild lions. The student camp is in a remote location, surrounded by nature and wildlife. It is from here that the students venture into this harsh land of extreme beauty. The isolated position and sheer size of the area has left humans knowing very little about the wildlife within this wilderness, and this is where you, the Volunteer, fit into this raw African conservancy.
