Ever watched a wildlife documentary on TV and felt envious of the khaki-clad rangers? Well, now is your chance to get a taste of what working in the African bush is really like. Conservation Africa is offering two week courses covering animal identification, botany, animal behaviour and geology. Students will also learn essential skills for rangers, like 4×4 driving, dealing with dangerous game, snake identification and tracking. The course is also set in a Big 5 game reserve, so your chances of seeing spectacular wildlife are high. It sounds like a wonderful holiday, much more imaginative than the standard safari package. And for those who fall in love with African wildlife, potentially the start of a career in conservation and rangering.
