Naples Zoo’s mission is to inspire people of all ages to respect, value, and help conserve wildlife and our natural world. Through our internship program, individuals learn through a variety of disciplines and have the chance to obtain a unique and meaningful career experience in a beautiful setting with amazing animals!
Our internships are designed to provide individuals who are currently enrolled in or recently graduated from college the opportunity to have an in-depth, hands-on experience learning and working in the zoo profession.
Interns will rotate through all areas within our Mixed Mammals Department, learning from our animal care team and assisting with daily husbandry, enrichment and exhibit maintenance. This department may include the following species: giraffe, zebra, bongo antelope, slender horned gazelle, yellow backed duiker, black crowned cranes, leopard tortoise, sulcata tortoise, red rumped agouti, tapir, capybara and giant anteater. Interns will gain exposure to operant conditioning, record keeping, guest interaction and interpretation, conservation organizations, veterinary procedures, browse identification, animal anatomy and terminology and behavioral observation and data collection. This area is also responsible for acquiring browse off zoo grounds for the animals and it is typical for interns to join in that activity.
This internship is a physically demanding experience and will require intermediate levels of strength and flexibility as well as the ability to work outdoors in all types of weather conditions typical of the South Florida climate. Uniform shirts will be provided to all interns upon the start of the internship.
