NFWC Internship Application

Thank you for your interest in an internship at the North Florida Wildlife Center! Interning here is a meaningful way to stay active, give back, and connect with wildlife and nature.

This opportunity typically requires a commitment of 10 hours per week over a period of at least 12 weeks. Interns should be comfortable working outdoors for extended periods, assisting with physical tasks, and supporting daily operations.

Intern shifts are divided into two five-hour blocks: 7am–12pm and 12pm–5pm. You may complete your weekly hours in a single day or across multiple days. A consistent weekly schedule is expected unless otherwise discussed.

We understand that not everyone can meet this exact schedule. If you’re highly interested and feel you would be a strong fit, we encourage you to apply or reach out to discuss potential opportunities.

Interns support a wide range of work at the Wildlife Center, including animal care, diet preparation, habitat maintenance, guest engagement, educational experiences, and other supportive activities.

Volunteering at the North Florida Wildlife Center is a unique and uncommon opportunity. Many wildlife facilities limit hands-on exposure to advanced students or seasoned professionals. At NFWC, we thoughtfully provide meaningful learning opportunities to dedicated individuals—including those with limited prior wildlife experience—who demonstrate responsibility, curiosity, and respect for animal welfare. This level of access is rare and reflects the trust we place in our volunteers, as well as the high standards we expect in return. *
Thank you for applying for this internship position. We will reach out soon about setting up an interview. If you have any questions before then, please email us Volunteer@northfloridawildlife.org.  *
Please attach your resume if you have one.
