How do I become a Marine Mammal Trainer at Marineland?
To become a marine mammal trainer, you should take as many of the science courses as possible in high school and in the first year of university. Courses in Developmental Psychology and Social Psychology are extremely valuable to the position. However, the most important way to prepare for this career is to have practical animal experience. Previous experience working with animals could be at veterinary clinics, pet stores, farms, or in aquariums or zoos. Successful candidates, in addition to having some previous history interacting with animals, will have good public speaking abilities and people skills. The ability to think clearly, quickly and with common sense are helpful traits. You should also be a certified diver and possess a valid driver’s license.
Since 3 or 4 trainers work with a group of animals at one time, each trainer should be able to work as part of a team. The ability to communicate with other trainers is essential because everyone needs to know how the animals are doing. The trainers work with all the marine mammals, making their work environment varied and challenging.
Marine mammal trainers are responsible for the animal’s mental and physical health. In addition to the actual training, trainers must keep up-to-date records about all of the animals, prepare food, clean habitats, perform general maintenance duties, interact with the public, do enrichment with the animals and carry out training discussions.
Working as a marine mammal trainer is both interesting and rewarding. Imagine interacting and bonding with the animals every day. It is no wonder that competition for these jobs is high!
