Join expert K9 trainers and anti-poaching rangers for this intensive course, designed for handlers, trainers, and rangers working with active K9 units. Participants will engage in real-world scenarios, enhancing operational effectiveness in anti-poaching, counter-trafficking, and wildlife protection roles. Like all GCF programs, this course provides exposure to diverse habitats and local tourist experiences within GCF’s conservation zones.
The GCF Introduction to Anti-Poaching Training Course is designed to forge highly skilled, disciplined, and mission-ready wildlife protection professionals. Over an intensive 21-day program, trainees will undergo a physically and mentally demanding experience, structured to meet the real-world challenges faced by anti-poaching rangers. This course is not for the faint of heart—participants should prepare as they would for a military or law enforcement boot camp, with the expectation of rigorous training in both practical and tactical conservation techniques.
