Conservation Corps Details

  • Age Range: High school students
  • Calling all teens! Are you interested in making a difference for wildlife? Then Conservation

    Corps at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park is for you. Conservation Corps is a hands-on program

    where high school students will have the opportunity to learn about conservation and

    environmental issues, while developing a deeper understanding of animal welfare and co-

    existence with wildlife. Participants will also have the opportunity to give back to the

    community, by participating in conservation projects in San Diego County, giving students the

    chance to learn from and network with experts and professionals in various conservation fields.

    Please note, there are no animal handling or interaction opportunities within this program.

     

    Thank you for your interest in the Conservation Corps program. Applications for our Spring

    2024 semester are closed. Sign-ups for our Fall 2024 semester will be available here in August.
