Descrição da revisão

Critter Care Wildlife Society specializes in the treatment, care and release of sick, injured and orphaned Native Mammal species of British Columbia’s Southern and Lower Mainland.  With over 30 years experience, we take pride in being an industry leader.

We're located in Langley, British Columbia which is approximately 50 minutes from Vancouver.  We're situated on a 6 acre plot of land and have over 40 habitat enclosures.  We rescue all native mammals which include Black Bear Cubs/River Otters/Raccoons/Beavers/Skunks and much much more!

We take great pride in being an industry leader as we offer top notch care to the animals that come in to care, you must be willing to help keep this up by always putting the animals first.

This program is suitable for ages 18+, We offer accommodations and food, this is all included. We accept applications year round, spots fill up quickly.

What to expect:

SUMMER:
BABIES BABIES BABIES!!!  if you would like to hand raise neonate babies this is when you should come.  The hours are long and the work load is heavy, however you will love all the experiences during this time.

WINTER:
The majority of the animals on site are adult animals that are injured.  You will also be caring for animals that will need to be cared for over winter as they will get released in the spring.


THE PERFECT PERSON FOR THIS ROLE:
You must be outgoing and willing to listen to instructions, wildlife can be dangerous at times.  You don't need to have any experience as we will train you the correct ways to do things.  You don't mind cleaning and getting dirty, you will be dirty 99% of the time. YOU MUST LOVE ANIMALS and be willing to offer them the highest level of care, the animals come first. 


In addition to rehabilitation we are involved in community based education programs at primary levels. We work to educate the public through involvement in civic groups, seniors homes and assist other wildlife management organizations. Our internship program has reached a new landmark this year, extending invitations to more than 25 collegiate or post graduate students from every continent on the planet but Antarctica!...So far.

Bevor ich 2 Monate bei CCWS verbrachte, hatte ich nur ungefähr eine Ahnung, was auf mich zukommen würde. Am Anfang noch recht überfordert, gelang es mir aber nach wenigen Tagen, mich schnell einzufinden in die Aufgaben und Abläufe und lebte mich ein. Mein Aufenthalt ging rückblickend viel zu ...

In my time at Critter Care i have learned a lot. Not only about animals, the work they are doing but also about myself. I was not in a very good place when i decided to go across the world to volunteer, but it was one of the best decisions i ever made. The people are so nice and the animals are just ...

I was here in the midst of the baby season. The most important thing to know, that in this time the work can be very hard and stressful. Also your free time and your days off can be very limited. But you have a chance to raise and care for local species of mammals of British Columbia, you normally ...

If the length of my stay isn’t already an indicator of how much I enjoyed my time at Critter Care then I’m not sure what is. I think in total I extended my internship 4 times because I never felt ready to leave. It has been one of the most rewarding experiences and I’ve gained skills and ...
