Snares are one of the deadliest threats to wildlife globally, silently capturing and killing countless animals each year. Effective snare patrols involve locating and removing these traps from both inside and outside wildlife reserves. This course will teach participants the skills necessary to identify, document, and remove snares, reducing their devastating impact on local ecosystems.
Participants will gain hands-on experience patrolling active conservation zones, exploring diverse habitats, and contributing directly to ongoing wildlife protection efforts. Each program also includes opportunities to visit local tourist sites, ensuring a well-rounded and enriching experience.
