Pluspunten
- Working with a wide variety of beautiful exotic animals - Positive and strong conservation ethic - Meeting amazing people from all over the world. - Challenging environment that keeps you active. - Family environment where you feel important no matter your position. - Marketing for an animal conservation facility is very rewarding, feels good to put my skills to a worthwhile cause.
Minpunten
- Far away from major cities (but this is also a good thing if you prefer a quieter country life like I do). - Can be challenging dealing with people who are against conservation facilities. - Workload increases significantly over holiday period, but that's to be expected. - Salary seems low on paper, but living costs in Oudtshoorn are very low so that coupled with working with animals and interesting people evens it out.
