Resumo: (VOLUNTEERING IN AN ANIMAL SHELTER)
The hosting organization is currently looking for 1 volunteer that will support the staff members in their activities of animal keeping and spreading awareness on biodiversity protection.

The organization is a rescue centre for wild animals that are in difficulties. One of the main activities of the Park is the recovery of wild animals. The organization has been providing refuge and animal care since 1980. The park is a refuge for individuals saved from vivisection labs, for animals injured by hunters or other human activities and no longer fit to be reintroduced in the wild and for those animals considered to be normally as cannon fodder.

The aim of the park’s activities is to heal the injured or sick animals: many of them can be released in the wild if they are completely recovered. At the moment the Park gives hospitality to about 400 animals, belonging to several species of mammalians, birds and reptiles.

Perfil: - Available from April 2023 for 9 months (dates and duration are slightly flexible)
- 18-30 years old
- Resident in EU member countries or Ukraine
- Basic level in English
- Basic or good level in Italian is appreciated
- Ready to live in an intercultural context in a rural, isolated area, with the closest bus stop at 20 minutes walking down hill
- Ready to share a small house, and small room, with another (female) ESC volunteer
- Good time management, adaptability, patience, open-mindedness, team-work
- Previous education and working experiences in the described activities are welcome but not necessary
- The Park is located in a very rural area, so unfortunately we’ll only consider candidates with a driving license
Vaccination against tetanus and hepatitis.
- only female candidates

Tarefas: - Logistics related to the daily life of exotic and local fauna individuals that cannot be released in the wild (food preparation and distribution, enclosures cleaning…)
- Logistics related to the daily life of injured or sick animals allowing their recovery and, if possible, supporting their introduction to the natural environment
- Promoting and spreading evolutionary process knowledge through the direct observation of animals
- Carrying out education activities and environmental education to support the development of a right relationship between man and other animals
