I love post-surgery work & my sweet co-interns
by: Widdad Sangcopanon - IndonesiaProgram: Veterinary Science (Wildlife/Animal Care) InternshipsWhat I loved about our internship, is the post-surgery work that includes rehabilitation and integrating animals back to their families. I can see how happy these animals are when they are reunited with their family... It makes my heart melt hihi. Ms. Foyer was my mentor and she was like a mom to me. I never felt alone in this entirely different country. My fellow interns are like my sisters and brothers, and always willing to extend a helping hand when I need one. Thanks guys!
