Testimonial:

“HHSWC is an unforgettable experience that has taught me a deep appreciation for wildlife animals. It provided a diverse opportunity where you get to be hands-on giving medications, fluids, and tube feeding various animals that you do not get to do anywhere else. The staff at HHSWC is always willing and able to teach you techniques and skills that will help you across many different fields of study. HHSWC is a must for anyone interested in wildlife or veterinary medicine!” ~ Kathy Hulbert

“Becoming a HHSWC intern was the best way for me to learn about wildlife and how to care for them. The staff was very welcoming since my first day and looked forward to teaching me new things. Any questions you have about wildlife they can always answer it for you or look forward to researching new things with you. I look forward to my future career in wildlife thanks to them!” -Bella Smith
