Summer 2026 Internship Applications Open
2026-01-01 | PA
Red Creek offers two levels of summer wildlife care internships with a focus on training and education. Applications for these internships open on January 1st, 2026.
Level 1 –
Any individual looking for continued education in wildlife rehabilitation can apply for a level 1 intern position which runs from May through August each summer. Start and end dates are flexible due to various college schedules, but interns must commit to one daytime and one evening six (6) hour shift per week, plus one additional weekend shift per month, for thirteen (13) consecutive weeks.
The Level 1 internship is a volunteer internship. It is unpaid and does not include travel or accommodations. What it does offer is an intense training program, including classroom instruction and a hands-on experience with adult and baby wild animals, including mammals, songbirds, waterfowl, raptors, and reptiles.
Level 2 –
Students who have completed a summer level 1 internship can apply for a level 2 internship within two years. Space is limited.
The level 2 internship program is a minimum wage paid position. It does not include travel or accommodations.
