Great experience in a center that matters

The center is an amazing place, we volunteered there for 3 weeks. However it has no funding apart from donations and is in need of help. The impact of the refuge is huge : almost half of jaguars in captivity in Ecuador are offspring of animals rescued by the center.

The vet and his team (Agustin and Mateo) are amazing to guide volunteers to learn about the animals and care for them (all animals rescued from illegal trade in the Amazon) : jaguars, puma, coatis, monkeys, parrots...

Projects to improve the center are very diverse : we worked on building a pool for the jaguars, decoration, educational speeches, children games, social media, building a meditation area, renovating the kitchen for animals, improve the feeding methods...

We really felt like we could help and share ideas. And lots of opportunities to have fun !!
