INGWE Leopard Research

INGWE Leopard Research

Now hiring

We recruit volunteers to assist our research team, monitoring leopard (and other predator) behaviours in South Africa. Leopards are the last of the big five roaming free outside game reserves and national parks. It is in these areas (the largest land mass of Africa), where leopards are under threat. Join the INGWE team and help us to conserve the last of the big five roaming free.
