Mammalogist Job Shadow
If you want to grow up and be a dolphin trainer, then this class is for you!  Come discover the fun and fascinating world of marine mammal training!  In this Job Shadow program, participants will prepare food for our seals and sea lions, visit exclusive behind the scenes areas, and learn the secrets of training animals, both marine and terrestrial. 

These classes are designed for the students in grades 7-12 interested in a career in marine science.  Students will roll up their sleeves and get some hands-on experience on what it takes to be a mammalogist.  This series of three-hour classes typically runs the first Saturday of every month.

Participants must wear closed-toe shoes for behind the scenes access!
