PRIMATE KEEPER
Howletts Wild Animal Park Canterbury , Kent
A
practical and proactive approach, coupled with good organisation and communication
skills and an overall understanding of the role of a modern animal collection
is essential, as is a full clean driving licence.
Only applicants who
fit the above criteria will be considered.
Single person accommodation may be available.
Howletts is
a world class wildlife park run by the international conservation charity The
Aspinall Foundation, and works to support a number of overseas conservation
projects including the Java Primate Project in Indonesia . We are home to a collection of
around 170 rare and endangered primates, including Javan gibbons, Dusky
langurs, Sulawesi macaques, Pied tamarins and Gelada baboons to name a few.
We have recently
built a rescue and rehabilitation centre in Java where rare Indonesian primates
can be confiscated and taken care of; with a view to either returning them back
to the wild or providing them with a better quality of life. Ultimately,
captive bred animals may also relocate to the centre, providing offspring that
could boost the wild population when reintroduction conditions are right.
