The team is made-up by professional vets & volunteers that participate in international environmental conservation & educational projects around Europe, eliminating any language barriers and offering international expertise.

With valuable experience, you’ll develop your skills and understanding of different conservation aspects.

For this program the participants need to be physically fit and able to undertake manual labor, enjoy practical activities, feeding & caring wild animals (birds, foxes, turtles, rabbits etc), work quickly and reliably both as part of a team and independently, have good oral and written communication skills, be safety aware.

As for Greece, perhaps there is no need for an introduction. It is one of the most popular and safest destinations in the world. Situated in southeast Europe it is blessed with sun, friendly people, rich cuisine and a truly unique landscape that spans from green forests to the deep blue sea. With its 2,500 years of history and its 1,400 islands there is plenty to discover in Greece and it will satisfy the most demanding visitor. Greece is one of the warmest countries in Europe with long, hot & dry summers and mild winters. The popular time to visit Greece is between May to September end. Occasionally heatwaves may occur with temperatures peaking (1-2 days) around 105°F / 41°C.
