The Calgary Zoo Animal Health Centre offers externships for veterinary students in their final year of study. Externships are a minimum of three weeks in length and are generally four week blocks of time. Successful applicants will gain experience in zoological medicine, surgery, nutrition, preventive medicine, and pathology in a wide variety of mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, and inverts in a collection of approximately 1,100
animals representing over 140 species. Students also will have the opportunity to work with the zookeepers one morning per week to gain exposure to the high level of husbandry, nutrition, and training and enrichment that goes on in an accredited zoological facility. The externship is an unpaid position and extern students must provide their own transportation and other living expenses while in Calgary.

Our 4-week vet student externship focuses on the veterinarian’s role in conservation medicine. Follow our vets as they treat injured wildlife and give support to 2 very different yet interrelated conservation initiatives. You will participate and learn from a wildlife rescue center and a Scarlet Macaw reintroduction program on the same site. Our goal is to inspire you to be a voice for conservation and to show you how, as a future veterinarian, you can make a difference in saving wildlife and their habitats in all corners of the world.
Wild Sun Rescue Center works closely with howler monkeys and capuchins, but often sees anteaters, parrots, iguanas, coatis, pacas, kinkajous, woolly opossums and more.
