To insure that the animals get all the care necessary to bring them back to health, we will be offering some internships to interested and motivated individuals. The work at a wildlife centre is anything but glamourous. Typically in the summer we work from 8am until midnight, with occasional 4am feedings during Harbour Seal season. An intern can expect to be involved in all aspects of the rehabilitation process. The schedule at the centre can be intense, but you will also be given time to enjoy much of what this beautiful island has to offer.
Internships typically last six to eight weeks, depending on scheduling.
The wildlife centre will offer very basic housing and occasionally some meals, but for the most part you will be responsible for keeping yourself fed. The wildlife centre is staffed completely by dedicated volunteers. As an intern you will become part of a team of like minded people and will be treated with respect and friendship. Previous wildlife experience is not a prerequisite. Applications will not be accepted via e-mail.
