Want to be an Exotic Animal Trainer?
This is the first step. See if you have what it takes to be an exotic animal trainer and what a working studio animal compound is like first hand. Trainer For The Day will give you an insight into the world of an exotic animal world from a trainer's and animal's point of view. Spend the day with our animals and trainers and see the daily efforts involved in caring for and training large exotic animals.
Trainer for the day is offered year round, seven days a week Check our online
calendar, for available dates. The minimum age is 12 yr. This a private
class (or couples can do it together) - you will work one to one with the
animals in their training and husbandry. This hands-on day will be spent working
with our Animal Actors such
as Katie (tiger), Flynn (leopard), Whoopi (panther), Bambam (grizzly bear)
and more.
You will assist our trainers in the daily activities at the compound. You will do everything from chopping up meat, to learning our affectionate training methods. Because this is a private class, you can focus on a particular animal or you can spend the day with all of them, the choice is up to you.
