Working at a Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre can be very intense at times because of the hours we sometimes have to keep. With any luck, you would be working an eight hour day but, at times, it can be up to 12 hours, depending on the number of admissions and their problems. An intern will be expected to be involved in all aspects of the shelter. Your job would include feeding, food preparation, cleaning, laundry, administering treatments, and participating in building projects, painting etc. But you will be given some time off to enjoy our wonderful city.
Internships typically last six to eight weeks, depending on scheduling.
We will offer you basic housing and occasionally some meals, but for the most part, you will be responsible for keeping yourself fed. The Wildlife Centre is staffed by dedicated volunteers. As an intern you will be treated with respect and friendship. Previous wildlife experience is not necessary. This form requires Microsoft Word in order to read.
