They work for the opportunity to spend time here learning about wolves. Most interns who are students also receive academic credit from their home institutions for time spent at Wolf Park. A minimum stay of three months is required. We provide dormitory space and kitchen facilities, and students provide their own food. This is an opportunity to spend time observing wolf behavior and doing a research project.
Participants can work in the park if they want to as well.
They are based on the behavior research carried out at Wolf Park since 1972. They consist of lectures, discussions, films, video and slide presentations, extensive observations of wolf behavior and some hands-on experience with wolves in a pack situation and, when possible, with pups. Since we can take only a limited number of participants, it is best to decide when you want to attend as early as possible.
