INTERNATIONAL INTERNSHIP
All year round we welcome students from all around the world during an international internship at Mecske Zoo (formerly known as Repzootic). During this internship you can learn how to work in a small zoo. The nicest part of it? Well, too much to name! But here are a few great things about doing your internship in Mecske ZOO:
- Since we are a small zoo, you will help with ALL tasks. The daily animal care, but also medical care, gardening, building and renovating and even making enrichment and education.
- We work with people from all around the world. So you definitely won't feel lonely, and will have the chance to exchange your language and cultural background.
- Maybe not the best place for party-lovers, but the silence of the nature and the bright stars in the sky will give you an inner rest everyone is in need of.
- We work hands-on with most animals. This means you will always have some (furry) company while doing your job.
- Most of our animals are rescues. Your help is necessary to keep our sanctuary running and growing.
REQUIREMENTS
- You are 16 years or older
- You can join us for at least 2 weeks
- You speak and understand (basic) English
