Vet Nurse Volunteer China

Animals Asia can only accept applications from volunteers trained in either veterinary science / vet nursing or qualified in wild-animal management (volunteers will also be considered who have a lot of experience working in the veterinary profession), as all hands on work with the bears necessitates intensive training.

All veterinary volunteer placements require a commitment of at least three months.

•        Recognised veterinary nursing qualification.

•        Experience working in veterinary practice in a veterinary nursing role.

•        Make medicated shakes for bears.

•        Walk and feed local dogs daily.

•        Assist with weekly and monthly cleaning duties.

•        Assist with the preparation for bear health-checks and surgeries.

•        Assist with bear health-checks and surgeries when required.

•        Help clear away after bear health-checks and surgeries.

•        Observe and monitor bears waking up from anaesthetics.

•        Feed, clean and enrich hospitalised bears in transport cages.

•        Help with small animal work as needed.
