I am interested in becoming a Wildlife Conservationist, researching wild mammal behaviour out in the field. I have a degree in Biological Sciences, Trained with London Wildlife Trust for 3 months, completed Project Management for Wildlife Conservationists course with WildLearning, volunteered and interned at Colchester Zoo, volunteered at Wildlife sense as a Field Researcher for turtles, and managed two successful fundraising projects.
I'm currently looking for any field experience I can get with mammals, whether that be in Kent, England or internationally.

I am currently looking for a field assistant type job, preferably doing research on land mammals anywhere in the world other than the USA. Unfortunately, because of COVID, these jobs have been extremely hard to come by and I doubt any will be available any time soon. Does anyone have any advice on what jobs/roles I can be looking for in the mean time please?

This is perfect for me. Looking forward to listening!
I thought that stakeholders was used? I've never seen beneficiaries used in nature conservation
I haven't looked at the slides yet but having all this information for free is absolutely amazing! Thank you for spreading knowledge on such an important issue
Hi Molly! It's great to hear that you're conversing with indigenous people, sharing your knowledge, and people that have gained power and privilege listening, learning, and taking actions to right wrongs, change their perspective, and how they action that privilege, language is very powerful and I think this is an important conversation.
I've always wondered where the origin of stakeholders comes from as it doesn't really explain who those people/groups are, so thank you for teaching me and the rest of the community. I think interested partners is a good one as something like right or title holders doesn't really include people like the public, and also brings an assumption that only people with rights and titles (i.e. people with privilege) are able to have a say in this, which I believe is rarely the case. l look forward to hearing more examples. Did the Native Americans you spoke to have any other suggestions?
