Sechuan, Big Panda Volunteer Day tour

Engage with pandas during this comprehensive volunteer opportunity in Sichuan. Enjoy an enriching experience as you learn about and care for one of the world's most critically endangered species.

This 1-day volunteer program offers an unparalleled opportunity to engage closely with pandas and contribute to their well-being. Located at the Bifengxia Panda Base in Sichuan, participants can interact with staff members, learn about conservation efforts, and participate in behavioral scientific research on both giant and red pandas. Upon arrival, volunteers will be greeted by conservation education staff who will serve as translators and guides, leading them through the panda enclosure where they will meet a dedicated keeper who assigns tasks such as cleaning enclosures, preparing food, or even the exciting task of feeding the pandas with apples tied to bamboo rods. Observing the pandas' natural behaviors and participating in daily activities further enriches the experience. Lunch breaks provide a break from the rigorous tasks ahead. Afterward, volunteers return to the base, which boasts expansive grounds and numerous pathways, ensuring that getting lost is unlikely. To capture moments with the pandas, a guide will accompany you to designated areas. This comprehensive program promises unforgettable insights into the world of these gentle giants.
