Volunteer at "The Animal Rescue Center" in Playa Chiquita, a non-profit foundation which aims to rehabilitate mistreated, injured and/or confiscated animals that are then reintroduced to their natural habitat in protected areas. The Animal Rescue Center works with a hands-on policy, which means direct contact with the animals is an important part of the work. Most of the animals have lost their mothers, or gone through traumatic experiences, and the center believes that direct contact is fundamental for the animals to build a strong defense mechanism to face their future successfully.
