Internship slots are open for the months of July and August. The organisation is all set to kick-start new projects this monsoon season, which include audio analysis, community conservation work and setting up a citizen science project among others.

You will be trained to conduct field surveys in mangroves, identify smooth-coated otter signs, understand otter ecology and behavior, learn to use a GPS and related software for digital mapping, set up and monitor camera traps, analyse otter behavior from recorded camera trap videos and several other skills to boost your career further. Wild Otters gives you a completely hands-on field experience.
