Here is a great volunteer opportuity at the Safari Park – if interested please contact Katie Macfarane with requested information ( education@blaidrummond.com )

“Macaque Habitat Warden

A voluntary position has arisen for a self-motivated person to join our macaque team as a macaque habitat warden.

The role is unpaid, but you will build up experience and knowledge of working with captive primates. Perfect for someone looking to further their career in an animal related discipline.

The main duties will include patrolling the macaque habitat and monitoring behaviour of the Safari Parks large troop of Barbary Macaques, supervising the public within the drive through habitat, recording any interesting behaviours and reporting back to the Macaque team.

This voluntary position will be best suited to someone who enjoys being outside (in all weather), self-motivated, confident and reliable. We would also like someone who can commit to at least a two week placement.

In return, you will get to volunteer within a team of dedicated macaque keepers and learn about captive primate husbandry. You will also be provided with a lunch voucher for the days that you are on duty.

For those interested, please email your details along with a covering statement to education@blaidrummond.com”

Kind Regards,
