What a session feels like
You arrive in boots and waterproofs at the wildlife park, greeted by your instructor. You slip on gloves and a hi-vis vest and follow the paths to animal enclosures. Maybe you help feed alpacas, clean habitats, or observe behaviours. You’ll hear stories, ask questions, and feel instinctively connected to life you’d normally only read about. After two hours of hands-on learning, you walk away knowing more than most about how animal care works in real life.
