With a fear of sharks being one of mankind's most common phobias, it is no surprise that shark conservation too often falls by the wayside.

When people think of animal conservation work, they doubtless imagine working with elephants in a South African game reserve or tracking leopards across the Serengeti. The last place most people think of volunteering to help animals is in the ocean itself. But marine animals face just as many dangers as those on dry land. Fishing, pollution, poaching and habitat destruction pose a major threat to countless ocean creatures, and dedicated conservation efforts are required to ensure that certain animals do not disappear forever. If you'd like to combine a love of the sea with voluntary work with animals, here are three of the creatures that you could help to protect.
Imagine a world without wildlife. A world without elephants; a world without tigers; a world without monkeys; or a world without lions. Almost impossible isn't it? We've all grown up taking our wild animals for granted and knowing that, although we don't get to see them all that often, they're out there somewhere; where they're supposed to be, doing what they're supposed to do. But as more and more of our precious animals become endangered or threatened through loss of habitat, pollution, human interference or disease, the chances of losing some species of animals forever are becoming more and more real.
Wildlife conservation holidays are a great way to get up close and personal to some of the world's rarest animals. However, if you want to spot an animal that's not often seen in the wild you'll need to travel a long way.

Thinking of taking a gap year? That doesn't necessarily mean that you're a young and wet behind the ears student.

We take a look at the various generations making their way out to the Game Reserves of Africa for their gap years.

Although the subject of wildlife conservation is fairly high profile, with gap year placements and volunteer tourism holidays becoming more and more common, there are still many projects around the world that are struggling to maintain enough funding and manpower to survive. So, once you decide that a wildlife conservation holiday is what you want to do, how do you choose where to go, and who to save? Is any one animal more important than another? Is any one in greater imminent danger than the rest? What an agonising decision to make!
