Abstract
This presentation describes the internship I spent at the Great Lakes Zoological Society in Ann Arbor, MI. The Great Lakes Zoological Society is a small conservation and rescue center that focuses on educating the community about reptiles and amphibians. Their indoor zoo features a variety of birds and invertebrates as well. The center is also involved with the rehabilitation and rereleasing of endangered native animals, as well as rescue and adoption of surrendered pets that need new homes. In this presentation I illustrate basic reptile and amphibian husbandry, daily duties that I needed to perform, and the medication regimen for animals with intestinal parasites.
