Spend six weeks in beautiful South Africa working with big cats, primates, birds of prey, reptiles, and more!
Combine three of our programs to explore South Africa and works with its wildlife. Two weeks of the program is based at Lory Park Animal and Owl Sanctuary in South Africa. Lory Park is one of only six zoos in Africa accredited by the Pan African Association of Zoos and Aquaria, with a focus on education and conservation. Your program will focus on understanding the anatomy, handling, and medical needs in captivity, behavior, and conservation of six main groups of animals at the park: birds of prey, reptiles, big cats, small cats, cubs, and primates. Your work with and coursework about these animals will be supplemented by veterinary labs such as necropsies and lectures from veterinarians and expert guests. In addition, we will spend a weekend on safari in Kruger National Park.
The two weeks with big cats is spent volunteering at Cango Wildlife Ranch, a big cat conservation facility also accredited by the Pan African Association of Zoos and Aquaria. Students will be learning about African wildlife while working with Loop vets right alongside the cats themselves. Though the volunteer facility isn’t a hospital, you will be gaining valuable experience learning and implementing the important work conservationists and zoo vets do.
The final two weeks of your summer semester will be spent at Selati Game Reserve shadowing a wildlife conservation team while living on a Big 5 Game Reserve. Students will learn about African wildlife research and care, go on safari in the world-famous Kruger National Park, and take a wildlife research course taught by Loop vets. Selati is home to wild elephants, rhinos, cheetahs, lions, and other African animal species. This program site does not have captive animals or a vet clinic on site. It offers a field course that is a combination of wildlife veterinary skills and research related to wildlife and conservation.
This program is designed for university-aged students who are interested in becoming veterinarians or working professionally with animals. Participants must be at least 18 years old. Most are 18 to 25, but we also accept full-time undergraduates over 25.
There are no pre-requisites for this program. You do not need to be in school currently to apply. Individuals of any nationality may apply.
Each group of up to 12 students will have its own veterinarian and on some dates, multiple groups will share site staff.

Our South Africa Pre-Vet Summer Semester combines three popular programs: South Africa Zoo Medicine, South Africa Pre-Vet Big Cats, and South Africa Wildlife Research.
Spending a full six weeks in South Africa allows students to maximize their time abroad and save money doing it.

There will be one “free day” between each part of the trip. Students are still required to remain on site at the project but can use this day to catch up on coursework, sleep in, or explore the project site. Meals and housing are provided on these days but there will be no planned activities.
Tuition is $13,295. PLUS free college credit and transcript included – save $499.
Tuition does not include international airfare. Tuition does not include medical insurance, passport, snacks, and souvenirs.
Interest-free payment plans are available. Current college students may be able to use federal financial aid toward their tuition. Your space is not held until your $3,000 deposit (credited toward tuition) is paid.
Airfare on the group flight from New York, NY is estimated at $2,200 round-trip including taxes and fees. Participants must fly on the group flight unless otherwise arranged with Loop Abroad (fees apply to flying off the group itinerary). This program has an international flight from New York to Johannesburg and then domestically from Johannesburg to George. Depending on the group flight arrival time, you may stay the night with your staff at an airport hotel and depart for George early Monday morning. The South Africa domestic flight and the hotel stay are included in the tuition and airfare estimate.

If you are a US citizen receiving a Pell Grant and currently enrolled in college or university, we encourage you to apply for this scholarship! See the official website for the latest details and read about Loop Abroad students who have received this scholarship.
You can receive 9 credits from the University of Findlay for this program at no additional cost to you. Loop Abroad can also assist you in working to get credit directly from your school. This is a study abroad program and all students will participate in the lectures, labs, and assignments in the schedule. Credit is optional and can be removed anytime before April 1.
You will receive a certificate for 225 service hours upon program completion.
This program is created with students who may want to apply to vet school in mind. You will be supervised by a teaching veterinarian in your classroom lectures, clinic time, labs, and animal activities, While you will need to track and calculate your own breakdown of veterinary, research, and animal experience hours based on your specific program schedule, you can plan on approximately 70 research hours and about 175 hours in total of veterinary and animal experience hours.
The the three courses that make up this program are:
ASLA 457 Biology and Conservation of Big Cats: South Africa
ASLA 455 Zoo Husbandry and Care: South Africa Lory Park
ASLA 458 Wildlife Research: African Wildlife
The syllabi for these courses can be found here on our syllabi page.
Groups will have a maximum of 12 students each. Your group will have its own veterinarian and you may learn from other Loop veterinarians, zoo staff, zoo veterinarians, and local experts as well. There may be other groups on site at each location.
During the zoo portion of this program, we will live on the grounds of the Lory Park Zoo. On the big cats portion of the program, we will be staying on property at the Cango Wildlife Ranch lodge. On the wildlife part of the trip, students will stay in “glamping” style tent accommodations on Selati Game Reserve. These will have regular beds and electricity.
Housing is in dorm-style rooms, and you will share rooms with other Loop students of the same gender. Bathrooms are shared. Students are not permitted to leave the grounds except when we travel off-site as a group. Free wi-fi is available throughout the zoo grounds, Cango Wildlife Ranch, and in common areas at Selati.
Meals are included in your tuition and will be eaten at the project, including a simple buffet-style breakfast (coffee, cereal, milk, toast, jam, fruit, and eggs, for example) and set meals for lunch and dinner. Vegan and vegetarian diets, as well as food allergies, can be accommodated with advanced notice. There are also refrigerators and a kitchen to store and cook your own snacks.
During the middle weekend of your program, housing and meals are included in your safari tour or any other excursions. Meals are included on your “free” days between programs.
Loop Abroad offers a full pre-veterinary semester in Thailand in Fall or Spring, offering over 20 credits and hundreds of veterinary hours. This high-demand semester is excellent preparation for students planning to apply to vet school.
This summer semester is a combination of six of our most popular 2-week modules in South Africa, Thailand, and Costa Rica. This semester offers 19 course credits, 150+ hours working with a veterinarian and 215+ additional hours of animal experience and research.
Midrand’s Lory Park Animal and Owl Sanctuary is located in Johannesburg, South Africa. (Johannesburg is the start and end point of our South Africa Veterinary Service program, which makes these programs very easy to join into a one-month adventure.) Lory Park is one of only six institutions in Africa to be accredited by the Pan African Association of Zoos and Aquaria, which is indicative of their high standards of safety, veterinary care, animal diets and enrichment practices, and overall welfare of the animals in their care.
Additionally, the park is one of four African institutions granted membership to the International Zoological Educators.
Lory Park opened in the year 2000 as a bird park, but quickly began accepting injured and trapped animals and has grown to be a sanctuary that is home to the following animals:
White and tawny lions
CaracalAs you can see, cats, birds, primates, and reptiles make up the majority of the animals that you will work with at Lory Park. The park has a focus on education and conservation, and you will get the chance to visit two schools in the community to help teach about the importance of animals and conservation.
Lory Park is involved in researching and breeding black-footed cats, and students will get to observe and participate in this research. Black-footed cats are difficult to breed in captivity, so their successful breeding pair is an important contribution to the survival of this vulnerable animal whose population is decreasing in the wild.
You will notice that other than cats and primates, the park does not have many of the large “zoo animals” you might expect, such as elephants, giraffes, hippos. Fortunately, you will have the opportunity to see these and many more African animals on your weekend safari.
We will have a two-day safari to Pilanesberg National Park, the fourth largest game park in South Africa and home to elephants, rhinos, leopards, buffalo, lions, zebras, giraffes, cheetahs, hyenas, hippo, crocodiles, jackals, wild cats, various antelope species, and hundreds of bird species. Here, guided drives will give us a chance to see lots of African animals in the wild and explore a bit outside of the zoo complex.
This itinerary is subject to change, but should give you a good overall program feel.
At the start of your program, you will arrive in Johannesburg on Sunday. Your staff will meet you outside of arrivals and you will all stay together in a hotel for the night. The next morning, you will fly out as a group to George for your Big Cats program.
During the week, you’ll split your time between volunteering at the cheetah facility and learning from our Loop Abroad vets. We will have a few days off from work mid-program to safari to a local game reserve. The site consists of a cheetah conservation center and a wildlife ranch, where you will spent all program time except for the safari trip and for your arrival and departure time in Johannesburg.
Every day on the project is different, but a typical weekday’s schedule will include one veterinary lecture/class, one veterinary lab/activity such as a necropsy or suture lab, one upkeep activity such as thatching or cleaning enclosures, time preparing and feeding the cheetahs, time observing the cheetahs and other animals, time working on and implementing enrichments for the animals, and mealtimes, as well as downtime in the evening. We may or may not be able to provide medical care to the animals on the property, depending what is needed at the time. Here are some projects you can expect to participate in:
At the end of the two weeks, your group will fly back to Johannasburg and we will travel to Lory Park Zoo as a group. Monday we have a full-day orientation to our new zoo home, including a tour, introduction to projects, safety training, and an introduction to the animals we’ll be working with during the project. Loop Abroad is the only program through which you can participate in a behind-the-scenes veterinary course at the Lory Park Zoo. A typical weekday on the project might look something like this:
Morning: After breakfast, break into small groups to spend the morning with one of 6 animal groups – big cats, small cats, cubs, primates, reptiles, or birds of prey (you will spend project morning with each of these 6 groups).
During this time, you will prepare food for your animal group, clean their enclosures, learn about their behaviors and needs in captivity, and assist in training for certain behaviors. You may also provide physical exams, receive a hands-on anatomy lesson, learn proper handling technique, or assist in providing medical care or assessments, depending on the group and the animals’ needs.
Afternoon: Generally weekday afternoons will consist of three components:
Not all weekdays will follow this exact schedule. For example, there is one “veterinary day” per week where the zoo veterinarian team performs care such as vaccinations and deworming, and your schedule will be adjusted so that you can observe, assist, and learn.
We will have one day of community outreach (pending availability with COVID), where we will visit two community schools and assist in the zoo’s projects at these schools, and we’ll have a chance to enjoy a relaxing encounter with the park’s ambassador animals.
On the middle weekend of the program, we will enjoy a two-day safari to Kruger National Park, where we will get out into nature and enjoy some game drives at one of South Africa’s biggest national parks, where we have the chance to see elephants, hippos, crocodiles, giraffes, leopards, zebra, and all kinds of wild African species.
After your two weeks at the zoo, the group will then be transported to the game reserve for the wildlife research portion of the trip! This program is on a Big 5 game reserve near Kruger- this means you will going on a game drive each morning with the potential to spot some amazing wildlife! Here are some of the activities you can expect to participate in:
Once your program at the game reserve is over, your group will travel back to Johannesburg and fly out together to return back to the states!
Important notes:
You will have an opportunity to touch animals if the location has an ambassador program and will observe them closely each day, but this is not a program designed for you to snuggle with wild animals. Hands-on contact is limited to safe, short interactions that do not cause the animals undue stress, participation in training exercises when available, and necessary medical treatment and observation on anesthetized animals.
Zoo medicine, conservation medicine, and care for wild and captive animals focuses observation over handling when possible, and this program adheres to those standards.
The order of weeks is subject to change.
