The chance to explore a variety of positions within a field I’m interested in helped me to narrow down my career interests. Wolf Ridge is a wonderful place with supportive staff and great programming.

Animal care and education
June - August 2019 • Finland, MN
What I liked
I got to work with fish, a red eared slider, great horn owl, red-tailed hawk, American kestrel, raven, a mouse, two little brown bats, a porcupine, a chipmunk, a spotted salamander, bullsnake, and a tree frog. I also got to do bird banding each week along with two cases of peregrine falcon banding and one night of hummingbird banding. Lastly, I got to create my own lessons for a whole week of Wildlife Camp.
