Orangutan, Elephant & Turtle Conservation Volunteer Project in Malaysia
- Malaysia
About Program
The first ever, experience a combination of Orangutan, Elephant and Turtle Conservation Project with Malaysia Cultural Experience at one go. A unique exploration you only get here.
Malaysia is blessed with thousands of natural flora and fauna. We are fortunate to host many types of wild animals for example orangutans, elephant, sea turtle, tigers, sun bears and the list goes on. On the hand, it is unfortunate many of these species are on IUCN Red List Critically Endangered facing the fate of extinction mainly due to loss of habitat, pollution, and illegal poaching.
It is very important for the public and private sectors to have the initiatives to protect these animals to prevent them from going into extinction. This project works on conservation with NGO and government agencies.
The unique project offers you to participate in the 3 different conservation projects at one go where you may not have the chance elsewhere in the world to have such a good opportunity.

Location
Malaysia is located partially on mainland Asia and the island of Borneo. The country is incredibly diverse with just over 50% of the people being Malay.
