Description

This project is seeking to six volunteer field workers for the 2014-2015 field season; between late October 2014 and early August 2015. A range of 3-6 month volunteer positions are available over this period. The fieldwork will primarily involve daily follows of baboon troops on foot, collecting data on the behaviour of individually recognisable animals, together with monthly insect/vegetation surveys and wider ecological monitoring related to the baboons' environment. The main research focus will be on climate, behaviour, and baboon host-parasite dynamics. The deadline for applications is 9am on Monday 16th June, 2014.

Volunteers receive free accommodation, food and a contribution towards flight costs.

A full project description, including the application instructions, is given within the member's area of our website.
