Wildlife Volunteer Thailand
Volunteer with rescued wildlife in Thailand
WFFT cannot wait to welcome you! Book now and help our 700 rescued animals.
We are always in need of volunteer support to ensure we give our animals the best care and a better future, whether this is by return to the wild or a lifetime of care. The majority of our work is funded through our volunteer scheme so we are always glad for the support. We currently run three projects: the Wildlife Rescue Centre (WRC), the Elephant Refuge (ER) and the Wildlife Hospital (HOSP). Our projects all run from one location in rural Thailand, about 160km southwest of Bangkok. This means you can combine volunteering projects and help in many different ways.
We value long-term commitment, so the longer you stay, the cheaper it becomes. Please follow the links below to learn more about Wildlife Volunteer projects and how you can help.
WRC have over 600 animals that we need your help to look after. As a WRC volunteer you will help look after more than 10 species of primates including gibbons, macaques and orangutans; bears, otters, civets, reptiles, birds and many more.

As an Elephant Refuge volunteer, you will help feed our 20+ Asian elephants, clean their enclosures, create enrichments, harvest banana trees and grasses and a variety of other maintenance work around the centre. We are proud to be Asia's first chain-free sanctuary.

WFFT's Wildlife Hospital was the first ever wildlife hospital in Thailand. Qualified vets, vet technicians and vet students can volunteer with our vet team, observing and assisting with care of both wild and domestic animals.
