Our Walkabout Team
All the work our team does is for animals. In addition to caring for the animals (animal husbandry), we take part in research and rewilding projects, fulfil our education mandate, look after our guests, support each other, keep our 170 acres of wild bush habitat healthy, run our gift shop, do so much administration, make sure we comply with our legal responsibilities, and are active in our community.
Our Team:
-
Our staff (employees & regular volunteers)
-
Our consultants and specialised volunteers
-
Guest workers (eco-volunteers and other guests taking part in a program assisting our team)
