    A great oportunity for studying african Zooloy and Botany in southern Africa for this year at whatever date suits is available.
    It involves studying along side some of the worlds most prestigious professors in there respected fields trapping birds (vultures etc), bats (mist netting) and studying large game (Elephant, Rhino, Zebra etc...)

    Its a volunteering program, all organised and not too expensive.

    I am organising it, I am from the west of Ireland.

    Post on Boards to see if there are many scientists out there (not that you need to be) who would be interested. Just drop me a line

    Cheers.


    P.S Hoping this does not conflict with rules against advertising on Boards.ie--I just want to see if there is much interest or much viewings on the science section of boards. Thank you!

    Just wondering if there are any people who further wish to Join the All-out

    Africa program voluntering in the conservation of natural habitats and

    wildlife protection in some of the most remote areas of Southern Africa, or

    who may wish to help the troubled country Swaziland, which at present

    has the worst level of Aids and youngest death average over every other

    country in the world

    Regards

    Now that I am in-between positions, I'm even more interested! Any idea when the next trip is due to head out? Are volunteers still required?

    Thanks!
