Abilene Zoo

Volunteering and Internships

Volunteers are a very important part of any zoo, and this fact is also true of the Abilene Zoo. These are the volunteer opportunities available.

Docents
Docents are trained volunteers that help in the Education Department.  They learn how to present animal and biofact programs, teach classes, give tours and generally help visitors in the zoo!
