Important

If you see a snake please dont try to catch it or chase it away

Just watch where it goes and give us a ring

A snake hiding in one place is easy for us to remove

But a scared snake somewhere in a huge clump of bamboo is virtually impossible to find
Bali Reptile Rescue is a small but dedicated group of volunteers who specialise in three main things with reptiles
Education Rescue Relocation
For far too long reptiles in Indonesia have been seen as only good for either food or fashion articles like shoes and handbags

It is only recently that conservation and environmental awareness has forced people to begin to understand the huge role reptiles play in Indonesian ecology

Indonesia has been blessed with some of the worlds most magnificent animals and our group wants to help preserve as many of these as we can before they disappear forever

With Bali becoming more populated every year because it is such a wonderful place to live; more and more forest and farming land is becoming cleared for housing
This removes habitats and brings more people into contact with displaced reptiles such as snakes lizards and fresh water turtles

Contact usually results in the death of the reptiles through human fear of the unknown
That is why Education about reptiles is so important and our priority here is educating the children to show them how interesting and wonderful their native animals are
Relocation lets us come to your home or workplace and safely remove any reptiles that are causing you concern
Rescue is where we treat and rehabilitate injured reptiles

Donations can be very easily made using Paypal which costs you nothing to send money
Anything at all is very gratefully accepted
Our Paypal is balireptilerescue@yahoo.com

We also have arranged a series of small tours in different parts of Indonesia especially to cater for people who want to see the real Indonesia away from the usual tourist traps
These tours are very different to anything offered by anyone else
We know the local people in each selected area and have hired the best guides available so that no matter what species of flora or fauna you want to see they will direct you into the best possible places to find them
As an example our last 4 day trip into a remote valley in Papua resulted in finding 4 Boelins Pythons and countless other reptiles; followed by 3 days of some of the best fishing I have ever experienced
Our night tours in Eastern Java are turning up more night creatures than anyone expected; from very impressive 5metre reticulated pythons down to tiny nearly florescent frogs

We are presently negotiating with several other tribal groups in Papua, Sulawesi and Borneo for permission to take people unobtrusively into their lands as well
These will all be into areas virtually never seen by any tourists before and inaccessible by other tour operators
Each tour group will be small as animal observation is much more successful with a smaller group

Volunteer

Volunteering

We are always happy to accept any help we can get

At the present time we are involved in several small operations around Bali
Volunteers may be involved with relocating reptiles from shops and houses
rehabilitation and release of reptiles back into the jungle
helping us to educate children by taking various reptiles to schools
night reptile surveys in specified areas, [night because most reptiles are nocturnal]

It is totally your choice which part or parts you feel most comfortable with

Unlike other Volunteer organisations there is absolutely zero payment or charge to you for your help
In fact we can even save you money by using our contacts to get you away cheaply to other places in Indonesia that are on your wish list
