The SLEWTHS project at Moss Landing Marine Laboratories is now accepting applications for career preparatory volunteer and internship positions available working with trained California sea lions on the central coast of California.
SLEWTHS is an innovative project of sea lions and people working together to further marine education, research, and conservation. Together with its parent company Animal Training and Research, International, the project’s range of interests and goals encompasses all major areas of the marine mammal industry. SLEWTHS, as the non-profit arm of ATR Intl., has three main program directions: Research, Classes & Internships, and K-12 Programs. The SLEWTHS project was founded on the idea of a cooperative relationship between sea lions and people. This forms the important foundation and common denominator for all the research performed by the project. In addition to research, education is a major focus of the SLEWTHS project. We offer internships http://slewths.mlml.calstate.edu/intern.htm for people who want to spend a day to several weeks working at our facility with the animals and staff in a hands-on experience. We also have a more long-term volunteer job-training program http://slewths.mlml.calstate.edu/jobs.htm where people interested in developing a career working with animals can learn technical skills to help compete to get a job in the industry. If you are interested in applying for either Intern or Volunteer positions please visit the links above and submit your application following the instructions on the web site. For further information you may contact: Stefani Skrovan sskro...@mlml.calstate.edu.
