Interns also help care for the program animals: snakes, tarantulas, hissing cockroaches, and a hedgehog, with more to be added. The wide variety of teaching opportunities and educational training provides the Conservation Education Intern with an exciting array of new skills and experiences that will benefit the intern in the future.
