Freelance Work/EPRC Director Vietnam

 


Freelance Work/EPRC Director Vietnam

Director (m/f/d) of the Endangered Primate Rescue Center at Cuc Phuong National Park, Vietnam

Zoo Leipzig currently offers an exciting and unique opportunity for a highly dedicated and motivated person with an affinity for primate conservation to join and lead an international team of passionate conservationists at the Endangered Primate Rescue Center (EPRC) in Vietnam.

The EPRC, located around 115 km southwest of Hanoi, is a non-profit conservation project of Zoo Leipzig, implemented in close collaboration with Cuc Phuong National Park. The center, operating on the interface between ex situ and in situ conservation, resembles a unique conservation effort for some of Vietnam’s and the world’s most endangered primate species. Zoo Leipzig has provided support to the EPRC for many years since its initial establishment in 1993 and has taken over the full management responsibility in 2013. Today, the EPRC is taking care of around 180 rare primates out of 13 species, supported by a team of around 30 employees, including one permanent Head Keeper from Zoo Leipzig.

The primary goals of the EPRC are to contribute to the conservation efforts of highly threatened primates in Vietnam and the region through

  • conservation breeding programmes for selected highly threatened primate species
  • rescue and rehabilitation of highly threatened primates originating from the illegal trade
  • reintroduction and population reinforcement efforts for selected focus species
  • targeted research activities contributing to the overall conservation efforts
  • capacity building in animal husbandry, veterinary and research fields
  • educating visitors, students and the general public regarding environmental issues and conservation efforts
