"My time in Merazonia has come to an end...I was there for almost 6 months. After my high school I didn't know what to do and since I like animals so much I went to Merazonia. It was the best decision of my life. I loved every day there!" Read more

"As my first time traveling out of the US, I volunteered at Merazonia for 2 and a half months and it was a completely life changing experience. The work is demanding but you know that everything you do has an impact on the center and it's up to you to make that a positive impact. Best served without a phone."

"What I love about Merazonia is their strict hands off policy with any animals that can be rehabilitated and they do everything they can to ensure release back to the wild, however, there are also animals here that unfortunately can never be released for various reasons, and we also spent a lot of time ensuring they had the best life possible!!" Read more

"I had the most amazing experience at Merazonia, and it started even before I get there. At the moment you reach out, Frank and Louisa are there to answer any question and to help you all the way until you get to the rainforest and of course during all your stay." Read more

"A wonderful place with beautiful animals and kind people who are truly dedicated to caring for and rehabilitating wild animals. Far away from home for the first time, I felt very welcome and safe. I learned a lot about the ups and downs of working in conservation and living in the jungle! I recommend it to anyone who really wants to make a difference!"

"If there is only one place in the world where you could volunteer then go to Merazonia. They do what is best for the animals, always with the intention of letting them return to their natural environment again. And what a nice bunch of people they are. Besides that, the work is not work. It's a joy to hang out with the animals (and the other volunteers), even cleaning up their pooh . For many volunteers it's a life changing time and a big learning experience. You will have FUN!!!"

"The people have proved warm-hearted, hard-working, hilarious and best of all incredibly dedicated to the care and well-being of the animals here."
