America
I loved all of it! My favorite part was when a sea turtle was caught, and getting to measure it, tag it, etc., to help the biologist monitor the turtle. I also really enjoyed learning about the turtles from the biologist! It was also fun to see different aspects of sea turtle conservation such as recycling and mangrove reforestation.
America
My favorite part was getting to know the bats. Each one has a different personality, and it’s great to learn about those nuances. Especially when I was able to recognize certain bats, and they touched my heart. I must have 800 photos just of bats.
Germany
Getting to hand feed and walk the elephants in an environment that the elephants were happy in, clearly well cared for, and where their well-being appeared to be the number one priority.
America
The trip was incredible. I learned so much and connected with the Galgos in a way I didn’t expect. Everyone was so nice. I feel like I’m just getting over jet lag. Thank you for helping me with setting up this trip!
UK
I loved learning about the animals and each specific story as to why they were at the sanctuary. I loved how the centre took the time to explain why animals exploited in tourism were in our hands and that we could stop it just by not participating in it. I absolutely loved my time at the wildlife centre and I would recommend this experience to everyone. I am extremely grateful for this experience!
Puerto Rico
I loved learning about the animal and each specific story to why they were at the sanctuary. I loved how the Przewalski’s horses centre took the time to explain why animals exploited in tourism was in our hands and we could stop it just by not participating in it. I absolutely loved my time at the wildlife centre and I would recommend this experience to everyone. I am extremely grateful for this experience!
Argentina
Amazing company, cannot wait to plan another international experience with you guys! My favourite part of my experience would have to be being able to work alongside other amazing volunteers and helping the injured/orphaned wildlife. It was incredible to see how different Australia’s wildlife species are.
America
This trip was absolutely incredible and life-changing and has taught me so much.
Australia
Being able to volunteer with dolphins was a dream. The gelato was also a highlight.
America
There is something so special about volunteering with all these horses. Living on the finca really meant we healed together. I can’t wait until I can come back.
Canada
Thank you so much for helping me volunteer with sharks. This was a dream come true and I couldn’t have done it without AEI. I appreciate how quick Nora is to answer all my questions, it meant a lot.
