    Description

    This is an opportunity to work with and care for reptiles including snakes, lizards and tortoises. I need help taking care of the animals including holding the animals for procedures, cleaning cages, preparing their food, keeping the reptile house clean, interacting with the animals to provide mental stimulation for them. I can teach you about parasite identification and treatment, how to handle these animals, interaction with the animals, husbandry, giving medications to reptiles, including injections, tube feeding them, and many other aspects of reptile care. If you are reliable, experienced, and come several times, I would be willing to hire you for money. Or you can earn community credit hours for working with these animals.

    1 shift available:
