Nkonzo Wildlife Internship Opportunities

Seeking dedicated interns for durations ranging from 2 to 16 weeks to contribute to conservation and research initiatives.

Join Nkonzo Wildlife in an immersive study of white rhino behavior, with a specific focus on understanding the effects of dehorning—a crucial technique employed to mitigate the risk of poaching. This opportunity allows participants to engage directly with a team of dedicated rangers and seasoned researchers, working on the front lines of conservation. Interns will participate in fieldwork that involves tracking rhinos, monitoring their health and behavior, and collecting data that will contribute to comprehensive conservation strategies. The insights gained from this study are vital for developing effective measures to protect these majestic creatures.

In addition to hands-on experience, interns will delve into the complexities of wildlife management and conservation science. Contributions will play a significant role in shaping policies and practices aimed at ensuring the survival of white rhinos in their natural habitats. This project is not only an opportunity to make a tangible impact on rhino conservation but also to enhance understanding of ecological balance, species protection, and the challenges facing wildlife conservationists today. Whether an aspiring conservationist, a seasoned researcher, or simply passionate about wildlife, this experience will be both educational and profoundly rewarding.

This internship opportunity is available on Handshake, titled "White Rhino Conservation Researcher" (Job #9158728).
