LEO Africa

Volunteers for Wildlife, Conservation & Sustainable Living

South Africa

WELCOME TO LEO AFRICA

Limpopo Eco Operations (LEO Africa) is a Big 5 wildlife monitoring & conservation volunteer project established in 2005. Our mission is to provide data on key animal species (lions, leopards, elephants, cheetahs, buffalo, brown and spotted hyena, and black and white rhino) to Park Management as well as help maintain the pristine beauty of the reserve where the project operates. The data we collect is used to evaluate population numbers and help inform decisions on future conservation practices.

At LEO Africa we have a strong focus on sustainable living and we promote green energy, recycling and reuse of materials via education. We believe that the future of wildlife and planet is reliant on everyone doing their part as well as maintaining and increasing protected areas.

Volunteers are the center of our work, helping us in the field, at base, as well as supporting the project financially, making our vital work possible. We provide a free service to the park, which contributes valuable information on the key species to the reserve management. By joining this project, you will learn new skills and make amazing memories whilst living a truly African experience!

LEO Africa does not receive any funding from the government, the reserve or any other institutions and are solely reliant on the contribution from our volunteers and donors.

"The greatest danger to our planet is the belief that someone else will save it"
