TWRC is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization that serves the community as an emergency and rehabilitative facility for injured and orphaned wildlife brought in by the public for eventual release back into the wild. Our educational offerings foster empathy and understanding about the value and the need to preserve our natural resources. TWRC was established in 1979 as the first wildlife facility in Houston and receives annually over 5,000 wild animals from 392 different species.
This non-paid internship is designed to foster and encourage individual growth in a candidate who is interested in wildlife, environmental science, or veterinary science careers. The intern will participate in all aspects of a fast-paced wildlife facility and participate in team meetings, training sessions, and attend workshops available through or offered by TWRC.
