Introduction to Snare Patrols and Tactical Man Tracking | South Africa

May 27 @ 8:00 am - May 31 @ 5:00 pm

$2500

Instructors: Mike Veale

This combined course introduces participants to two essential field skills: snare patrols and tactical man tracking. In the snare patrol segment, attendees will focus on identifying and removing snares to protect wildlife. The tactical man tracking component teaches participants how to locate and follow a person or quarry by analyzing environmental clues like footprints. Whether for anti-poaching efforts or navigating dangerous game habitats, these skills are foundational for conservation work.

What to Expect from GCF Training Courses

Our programs prioritize education and skill-building in wildlife conservation. While not as physically demanding as the 5-week Bootcamp, they still require a solid commitment to outdoor work, including hiking, navigating diverse terrains, and enduring the elements. Applicants should come prepared for adventure and hands-on learning, as well as a willingness to get involved in impactful conservation efforts.
