Hey again everyone!!! So for this free post I decided to find some videos on You Tube about something that I am really interested in that relates to the field of zoology. SeaWorld has something called the Rescue and rehabilitation Program where they rescue animals that are harmed by either environmental or man made factors. Then they rehabilitate these animals until they are able to be released into the wild. Below are the (short) videos that I found on You Tube that I were really interesting and informative:

So through these videos I was able to learn a little more about what it is exactly that the Rescue and Rehabilitation program does at SeaWorld and even got to see exactly how the process of rescuing and rehabilitating works on an animal such as the seal. being able to do this through a video was pretty cool too because I feel like that is a lot more interesting and fun way to learn something. I would really like to watch more videos like this to hopefully learn a little more about this program and I would really really love to be able to do some sort of internship at the SeaWorld in Orlando Florida with this program.

I really liked watching the videos you posted about animals and the Rescue and Rehabilitation program at SeaWorld. I used to work down at Disney World in Florida and SeaWorld was right next door, so seeing a blog post about SeaWorld was pretty cool. I had no idea that they had a Rescue and Rehabilitation program there. It is awesome and really makes me want to visit SeaWorld again. I'm glad the animals are in good hands.
ReplyDeleteYes it is something I discovered on my trip to SeaWorld last summer and have been incredibly interested in it since. I also am in love with Disney! What kind of work did you do there?
DeleteThis is really interesting Kelsey! I'm majoring in Veterinary Medicine, but more for domesticated animals rather than wild animals. My grandmother participated in a rescue and rehabilitation organization for baby squirrels and sometimes baby raccoons. I've helped a few times and think it would be an interesting area to research more. Do you want to get into rescue and rehabilitation once you have gone through schooling and started your career?
ReplyDeleteYes it is pretty much exactly what want to do later in life. rescue and rehabilitation of squirrels and raccoons sounds really interesting. I have never heard of it before. What kids of things did you have to do for it?
