Thank you for your interest in volunteering (or performing community service hours) at the St. Augustine Wild Reserve, located near the World Golf Village in the northwest part of St. Augustine.

Volunteers participate in many activities at the Reserve, to include cage cleaning and maintenance, diet preparation, commissary cleanup, bowl washing, meat sorting, and more. We have dozens of animals ranging from lions and tigers to coati mundis and porcupines. Note that if we don’t get right back to you, we are just busy with animal care. Once we are ready to accept new volunteers, you will be contacted.

Volunteers must be over the age of 18, or be accompanied by a parent when they volunteer. We usually start new volunteers at 8:30am or 9am on Monday through Sunday.

Please do not arrive at the Reserve without an appointment; you must schedule your first day online at wildreserve@aol.com, at which time you will receive an email confirmation. You will receive an email within 24 - 72 hours.
