Wolf Hollow Internships
We are now accepting applications for internships in summer/fall 2019. If you wish to apply, please read the following information then print out an application form. Completed applications should be mailed to the Education Coordinator before Feb 14th 2019.
An internship at Wolf Hollow provides the opportunity to gain hands-on experience working with many different wildlife species and to learn skills such as handling techniques, diets, food preparation and feeding methods and to assist experienced rehabilitation staff with treatments. Our internships are intended to provide on-the-job training in basic rehabilitation skills, not to teach advanced veterinary theory or techniques. Our rehab. staff work closely with local vets, but we do not have a vet on staff.
We hope a working internship will help interns to examine wildlife career opportunities. In return, we expect to work with enthusiastic, mature, hard working people who will become an integral part of the working team at Wolf Hollow during their internship. Most of our interns come from biology, wildlife management, veterinary medicine, veterinary technician or environmental education fields, but we will consider interns from any background. We believe that a strong interest in wildlife, enthusiasm and willingness to learn are more important than academic qualifications.
Opportunity to learn about local wildlife and gain experience:
- Assisting with presentations, events, and
children’s activities - Helping with the care of educational birds.
- Preparing educational artifacts and materials
