Description |
The Zoological Society of London are looking for an experienced herpetologist who would like to volunteer on our Chinese giant salamander (Andrias davidianus) conservation project in central and southern China for 3 to 6 months. Over recent years, this iconic species has declined due to over hunting and habitat degradation. You will assist our Chinese partners in conducting intensive field surveys throughout the region and document the presence and absence of the Chinese giant salamander. You will also assist with carrying out basic sampling for disease screening and genetic testing. You will be required to train new partners in field survey techniques. To apply, please send a covering letter stating your experience, interest, and availability, plus a copy of your CV, to ben.tapley@zsl.org |
