How do you become a volunteer at YWP?

For school, college and bachelor level research please apply using the application form found in the education department section of this website.

Unfortunately, we are not able to accept students on work experience.

You will need to gain practical experience working with a range of different animal species. In addition, there are college and university courses covering animal sciences.

Rangers at Yorkshire Wildlife Park all have a degree level qualification in a biological science subject and at least one years’ experience of working with animals.
