Wild Welfare’s digital education program creates accessible and engaging opportunities for animal care principles to be learned and understood. Learners will be equipped in the essential components of animal care and management, which in turn can help improve welfare standards for animals.

The online learning is designed primarily for animal care staff who may not have had previous opportunities to learn about animal welfare concepts and husbandry practices. A knowledge and skills gap within animal care staff is a primary issue that, if addressed, can help improve welfare standards for animals under human care around the world.

Wild Welfare works with captive wild animal facilities such as zoos, aquariums, and wildlife sanctuaries whose staff are eager to learn how they can improve animal welfare standards in their facility, and this program is designed to help them do that.

Each program module has instructional materials and an interactive quiz, with questions and activities to encourage knowledge retention and inspire learning. The program is fully accessible from a computer or mobile device and is completely free to access.
