Animal Science Internships Abroad

Hello, my name is Alyssa and I am from Florida, United States and I attend the University of Florida. I chose to do this internship because as part of a requirement for my degree on University, but I chose this internship specifically because I am interested in wildlife conservation. I was able to see and do many interesting things during my time here. I was able to release three different species of birds successively. I was also able to see releases of different wildlife species. I was able to see different veterinary procedures and I was also able to see different species of birds I wouldn’t normally see in Florida. I am very happy with the coordination from Cerca Abroad. They are very helpful and through any questions I had, very quickly. I really enjoyed staying in Thessaloniki. It’s really a beautiful city and everyone’s been so nice that I’ve met. I would suggest this internship to anyone that is interested in wildlife conservation.

Since i read the Jungle Book as a kid i've always been intrigued by the jungle. I did several trips here and there on the planet and always felt i need to go to the amazone. Well it took me a bit long but i finally did it due to the documentary "Wildcat". That's how i end up here. If you want a true amazone experience this is a great place. I very much enjoyed going in the jungle to seek out wildcamera's or doing other stuff, like making a trail. I absolutly cherish my morningwalks where i'd walk up and down the trail just tryin to find as much animals as i could. I've seen so much in only 3,5 week. There's lots of stuff to do as in work but i didn't feel like i ever was pushed to do too much. It is an adventure i always love having as one of my best memories, but don't underestimate how though it can be out there. For me in my 40's it took everything i got out me, but i'd do it all again in a heartbeat.
