Mission Statement
You will learn about Ecuadorian culture, share with locals, learn new skills, and learn Spanish in a natural way. Our preservation work is achieved through 3 processes, education, recreation and research. In these 3 areas we cover key issues such as illegal trafficking of animals. We often receive animals that have been the victim of trafficking or similar illegal activities, upon receiving such individuals we try to rehabilitate and release them back into the wild when possible. However the sad fact is that this is not always possible so some individuals remain with us at our zoo, we endeavour to provide these animals with an environment as similar to their natural habitat as possible. It is our excellent work with such animals that has lead other rescue centres to send us animals they receive and cannot care for, as well as receiving many illegally kept animals seized by the Ministry of Environment. Be a volunteer in our Refuge!
Description
Zoorefugio tarqui fue creado en el año 2008 por Willian López y Fanny Bonilla, con el principal objetivo de ayudar a los animales que son víctimas del tráfico ilegal, los cuidamos y brindamos lo necesario para mejorar su calidad de vida.
La ayuda voluntaria es muy importante para todos los animales, ya que no recibimos fondos del gobierno, es un trabajo duro pero es maravilloso cuidarlos, necesitamos ayuda de personas que amen a los animales y no les importe ensuciarse las manos. , se necesita ayuda de voluntarios durante todo el año.
Las actividades de los voluntarios van desde la limpieza de recintos, caminos, hasta la alimentación de los animales, el cuidado de los animales en cuarentena (animales llegados o crías) y trabajo en el área de enriquecimiento.
