Beginning February 15, 2008, Orphaned Wildlife Rescue Center (OWRC) will be taking applications for Maryland State Wildlife Rehabilitators on a first-come, first-served basis. This is a two-year program requiring several hours per week, year-round and a substantial commitment of twenty hours per week, May 15 through July 30 annually during the baby animal season. Anyone who intends to handle mammals must have rabies pre-exposure shots that are available at the county Health Department or through your family physician. Interns must be at least age 18 and have their own transportation. Hours of operation at OWRC are from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Non-licensed volunteers are also needed.
