Educational
Opportunities
Tri-States summer internship program has been teaching future
veterinarians, rehabilitators, and
conservationists for 31 years.
Students accepted into the
program gain months of hands-on
experience learning about avian
anatomy, diets, husbandry, natural
history, common injuries, and
medical treatments.
Interns are a vital part of the team
that treats and raises over a
thousand baby birds admitted
every summer.
The 2014 Summer Intern Program was funded by generous gifts from:
Bank of America
The Dansko Foundation
The Deupree Family
Foundation
Sharing our
Knowledge
2014 marked the 18th year that Tri-State
presented the Introduction to Wildlife
Medicine course to first-year veterinary
students at the University of Pennsylvania.
Through lectures and wet labs, this course
provides students with an overview of the
field of wildlife medicine as well as hands-on
opportunities to handle live birds, perform
necropsies, and learn about the effects of oil
on wildlife.
In addition, the Wild Bird Clinic and Oil Spill
Response Team offer workshops to provide
further training opportunities for our dedicated volunteers throughout the year.

Working together
Tri-State works within a community of rehabilitators, universities, state agencies, and other
non-profits to help our native wildlife. This
female snowy owl was one such case. She
had surgery for a wing injury at the Maryland
Zoo in Baltimore, with follow-up rehabilitation
at Owl Moon Raptor Center. Then she was
transferred to Tri-State for flight conditioning to
prepare her for release.
Prior to release, she was fitted with a lightweight GPS transmitter by Project SNOWstorm
for tracking purposes, and they dubbed the
owl Delaware. It was a long journey, but
now shes back in the wild where she belongs,
thanks to many helping hands.
