Xtreme Gap supports conservation projects on your gap year or career break. We believe conservation projects are a worthwhile and rewarding way to spend you gap year and will benefit both you and the animals in the wildlife conservation projects. Our conservation projects are available all year. We specialise in Wildlife Conservation Projects and Environmental Conservation Projects providing Gap year students with exposure to some of the most dangerous and exciting animals. After all were are an extreme gap year company!

Wildlife Conservation Projects
If you are interested in wildlife conservation, why not get up close and personal with one of our extreme wildlife conservation projects. You can work directly with endangered animals through conservation work in a game reserve or you could get involved in education by teaching local people how to be environmentally responsible. What makes our conservation projects extreme? We like to look after animals with bigger teeth than the rest. Including, big cats and sharks.
