Volunteers

Great! We do have volunteer requirements though:

  * Must be 18 years old or older

  * Must be able to volunteer 4 hours a week , between 9am and 1pm on regular basis . You can volunteer more hours if you

  want, but we only ask for 4 hours a week!

  * Must show proof of tetanus shot dated within the last 3-5 years

  * In order to work with any of the wild mammals that will be released back out into the wild such as raccoons, opossums, and

  foxes you must complete a Rabies pre-exposure vaccine series through the Health Department. Without these vaccines

  some of our permanent residents will also be off limits. But there are plenty of animals to take care of without these vaccines.

  * Must have a love for animals, the environment & hard work!

If what we have just described to you is what you're looking for, come out and join the fun! There's a lot to do! We do ask that prior to filling out an application, you must visit our facility and speak to a curator regarding your interest. We will then give you an application to fill out. No need to call and leave a message that you are interested, just fill out the form below. Our phone number is 407-568-5138, if you have any specific questions of concern.

Don't wait! Come see us soon!
