7 or 14 Day – Wildlife & Domestic Veterinary Mission
Live the ultimate wildlife and veterinary experience in Malawi! Join a passionate team at Malawi’s leading wildlife rescue sanctuary and clinic, working alongside a qualified wildlife vet and gaining hands-on experience with some of Africa’s most iconic species. From annual health checks and rescue intakes to suture work, sample analysis, and patient monitoring, you’ll be immersed in real-world veterinary care. Expand your skills further by assisting in domestic animal outreach through the LSCPA – treating livestock, taking part in spay and neuter programmes, and supporting rural communities. Deepen your knowledge through expert-led lectures on wildlife health, including parasitology, primate medicine, emergency care, pharmacology, and remote capture techniques.
Between fieldwork, unwind at the sanctuary with full-board accommodation, surrounded by the sights and sounds of the animals you’re helping.
Add even more adventure to your mission with optional wildlife and cultural excursions offered on site. Explore the surrounding area, experience local culture and traditions, and get closer to the incredible wildlife beyond the main programme.
