Are you interested in a career working with marine mammals? Or curious about what a day in the life of an animal trainer looks like? Come spend the day with MSAQ's Dolphin and Otter team! This experience will give you a behind-the-scenes, hands-on snapshot into the world of Animal Care and Training.
Guests will begin their morning in our kitchen, learning about how we prepare diets for our animals, participating in diet preparation, and helping with the kitchen cleaning after! They'll spend time with our training team as we work with our otters and dolphins, assist with cleaning and training sessions, and have the opportunity to meet one of our dolphins up-close!
