We are so happy that our lovely volunteer Stevie h We are so happy that our lovely volunteer Stevie has extended her project by another 5 weeks.

Stevie has turned out to be absolutely perfect for this project with youth at risk and her empathy, hard work, positivity and kindness has won over both staff and the youth at the centre.

She is now also focusing on a few of the children who are battling with literacy with individual reading to try get them up to speed along with the daily youth program that takes place ⚽️ 🎱 

We were able to donate some sports equipment, board games and replace the old pool cues (the youth can play pool ONLY after lunch and when the daily program is finished) so the youth can also have a little fun in their free time. The youth attend the centre voluntarily.

Saying goodbye is never easy and volunteer Pauliin Saying goodbye is never easy and volunteer Pauliina from Finland, would easily stay longer if she could. 🇫🇮 

We really loved having Pauliina volunteer with us in South Africa and like our other Finnish volunteers, she has such a great ethic to helping out and getting her hands dirty. She is also studying an Animal Care course in Finland so that was also a bonus! 

She flies home today 😞 #animalsanctuary #animalcare #volunteer #gapyear #wildlife #finland #finnish #Rosie

African Wild Dogs (Lycaon pictus) aka Painter Wolves are fascinating canids.

5 interesting facts:
1. They are social animals living in packs and only the alpha male and female breed once a year.
2. They are one of -if not the most- successful hunters on the African continent with an 80% average kill rate hunting in packs with a speed of up to 60kph.
3. Every African Wild dog has a unique coat pattern rather like the human fingerprint and 4 toes and no dewclaw like domestic canids. 
4. They have quite a nomadic lifestyle easily traversing 50km in a single day so can have extremely large territories.
5. African Wild Dogs are one of the most endangered animals on the planet (Endangered status on the IUCN Red List) with populations in the wild still found in southern Africa and the southern part of East Africa. The reason for them being endangered is due to human persecution (despite attacks on humans not being recorded), habitat fragmentation because of human encroachment and outbreaks of disease as they are vulnerable to disease that domestic canines can carry like Distemper. #volunteer #endangeredspecies #priority #africanwilddog #dog #canine #wildlife #conservation
