Animal Trainer and Animal KeeperOur animal trainers and keepers are taking care of the well-being of our animals, they carry on behavioural tests and train them on a daily basis.
AdministrationIn the control room of the WSC - the office building - the employees are taking care of book keeping, procurement, agenda setting, project management, visitor programs, godfather programs, media requests and much more.
ResearcherResearchers at the WSC work and study here for several years, working on one big research topic. Often, they are completing their PHD or PostDocs Research with their work at the WSC.
Students and InternsIf for the purpose of writing a bachelor or master thesis along with a scientific internship or for getting to know the work of an animal trainer or manager - there are always several students and interns working at the WSC. By working and studying at the WSC they are not only supporting the research, but are also helping with other tasks, such as giving guided tours, helping with animal keeping, preparing food or assisting the management team.
Tour GuidesAt the Wolf Science Center you can book tours about our work for school children or companies. In the months with the highest frequency of visitors, we are giving more than 10 tours per week and the tour guides are our greatest supporters in doing so. They are team members, who are very interested in our research and our training. For conducting a tour, they are travelling extra to the WSC and are passing their enthusiasm on to our visitors.
PhotographersWithout our photographers, we would not be able to present the WSC on our webpage and other media, as it is. Taking pictures of our - sometimes quite shy - animals, takes a lot of patience and empathy and so we are very greatful for the time, our photographers are investing into the WSC.
