Ross Testimonial

Sarah M.

"I have a huge passion for wildlife ad helping animals. When I thought about what I wanted to do with my summer, I realized that traveling while being able to work with different types of animals was a perfect fit. While I was in the Galapagos, I had the chance to work with the tortises at a hatchery, and also help protect their environment from invasive species. Not only that, but I was in THE GALAPAGOS! It was such a once-in-a-lifetime kind of experience, and I'm so happy I decided to give it a try."
