It is possible to go caving with professional guides in the 1500-meter-long cave and vertical caving or have a guided walk in the amazing tea fields that are so typical for West Java. It may also be possible to visit Gunung Gede, Pangrango, or Halimun Salak, where gibbons, leopards and many other wild animals still live.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-gb2749-69e5f8c879379-7\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-has-style\" ><div class=\"page-row-image siteorigin-panels-stretch panel-row-style panel-row-style-for-gb2749-69e5f8c879379-7\" data-stretch-type=\"full-width-stretch\" ><div id=\"pgc-gb2749-69e5f8c879379-7-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div class=\"right panel-cell-style panel-cell-style-for-gb2749-69e5f8c879379-7-0\" ><div id=\"panel-gb2749-69e5f8c879379-7-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_media_image panel-first-child\" data-index=\"10\" ><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1119\" height=\"987\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.cikanangawildlifecenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/volunteer3.jpg\" class=\"image wp-image-2757  attachment-full size-full lazyload\" alt=\"\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1119px;

Without any experience I started in Cikananga, but by all the enthousiasm of the staff and the other volunteers helped me succeed to master the ins and outs of being a wildlife volunteer. Of course you can\u2019t change the world by one month of volunteering, but it taught me an important lesson about how I perceive nature and it has made me aware that animal abuse is much more common \u00a0than ever before had dared to imagine. I\u2019m glad I started this my trip through South East Asia in Cikananga and I would highly recommend to enroll in the volunteering program and accept this challenge, it\u2019s a great experience!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Stefan Timmerman, Dutch Volunteer, 2016.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"sow-slider-image-overlay sow-slider-image-cover lazyload\" style=\"opacity: 0.5;background-image:inherit\"   data-bg-image=\"url(https:\/\/www.cikanangawildlifecenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IMG_0050-scaled.jpg)\"><\/div>\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t<li class=\"sow-slider-image  sow-slider-image-cover\" style=\"visibility: hidden;;background-color: #333333\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-slider-image-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-slider-image-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t<div id=\"pl-w82a4fa13\"  class=\"panel-layout wp-block-siteorigin-panels-layout-block panel-layout\" ><div id=\"pg-w82a4fa13-0\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-w82a4fa13-0-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-w82a4fa13-0-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<blockquote>\n<p><strong><span lang=\"EN-US\">In 2018 I spent about 2,5 months in Cikananga as an intern. I mainly focused on education &amp; communication (crowdfunding). The internship was a very meaningful experience to me! I learned a ton about conservation, the different animal species &amp; their needs and cultural differences between countries. The staff at Cikananga was always positive and very open and interested to hear about my plans and progress. They put in the effort to make time to discuss my reports and always provided ample feedback. In the last week we (me and my internship-buddy) organized a presentation to show our end results. The staff made sure all of the people who were involved got to join. As an intern this makes you feel like your work is truly valued. \u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Lisa de Brouwer, 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"sow-slider-image-overlay sow-slider-image-cover\" style=\"opacity: 0.53\" data-background=\"url(https:\/\/www.cikanangawildlifecenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IMG_2158-scaled.jpg)\"  ><\/div>\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t<\/ul>\t\t\t\t<ol class=\"sow-slider-pagination\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li><a href=\"#\" data-goto=\"0\" aria-label=\"Display slide 1\"><\/a><\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li><a href=\"#\" data-goto=\"1\" aria-label=\"Display slide 2\"><\/a><\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/ol>\n\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-slide-nav sow-slide-nav-next\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#\" data-goto=\"next\" aria-label=\"Next slide\" data-action=\"next\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<em class=\"sow-sld-icon-thin-right\"><\/em>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-slide-nav sow-slide-nav-prev\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#\" data-goto=\"previous\" aria-label=\"Previous slide\" data-action=\"prev\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<em class=\"sow-sld-icon-thin-left\"><\/em>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-gb2749-69e5f8c879379-13\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-has-style\" ><div class=\"form-download-button panel-row-style panel-row-style-for-gb2749-69e5f8c879379-13\" ><div id=\"pgc-gb2749-69e5f8c879379-13-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell panel-grid-cell-empty\" ><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you want to make a difference for wildlife in one of the most extensive rescue centers of its kind?
