Robin Gilbertson |
My name is Robin Gilbertson from Cedarburg, WI. I
graduated in May 2016 from the University of Wisconsin- Green Bay with a major
in Animal Biology and a minor in Human Biology. I have had a wildlife
rehabilitation internship at the Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary mainly working
with songbirds, waterfowl, and birds of prey. I also had an internship at
Animal Gardens as an animal care intern working with hoof stock and exotic
animals. I helped raise a few of their baby animals as well. I have worked at a vet clinic in the past and volunteered at the Green Bay Humane
Society. One day I hope to be at a sanctuary helping wildlife and educating
people on the native animals (basically wildlife rehab).
Favorite Animal:
I love
arctic fox and sea turtles.
Favorite Song/Artist:
I love Avicii. Any of his songs are
amazing.
Favorite Movie:
My favorite movie would have to be
either Grown Ups, Gnomeo and Juliet, or any Lord of the Rings franchise (which
includes The Hobbit).
Role Model:
My parents of course.
Hobby:
I collect movie ticket stubs from
every movie I go to. I like to see which movies I’ve seen and how many times.
Weird Talent:
I can
touch my tongue to my nose without using my hands.
When I am not working, I would rather be rock climbing
or singing to music I know without a crowd or just hanging with friends.

Dannielle Edick |
I am Dannielle Edick from Mohawk, New York. I graduated
from SUNY Delhi with an Associates in Veterinary Science Technology and from
SUNY Oswego with a Bachelors of Science in Zoology. I have prior experience working
with exotic animals from an internship at the Utica Zoo in their Commissary and
Veterinary/Quarantine area as well as another in the North Trek/African Alley
section. I also performed an internship at the Rosamond Gifford Zoo in the
Small Mammals department and then an apprenticeship back at the Utica Zoo in
the Commissary/Quarantine area.
Favorite
Animal: Gray Wolves, Cheetahs, and Servals. Ooo and Snow Leopards, Amur
Leopards too… Red Foxes and Harbor Seals as well. Too many choices, can’t pick
just one! Guess I’m in the right profession! Arctic Foxes, Osprey, Black and
White Ruffed Lemurs, and Blakiston’s Fish Owl also!
Favorite
Song: Coming for You by Twelve Foot Ninja, also And We Danced by Macklemore and
Ryan Lewis. Almost everything by Green Day, Rise Against, and Ghost. (I am
REALLY bad at making decisions for this kind of stuff…)
Favorite
Movie: Star Wars, Lion King, all the Harry Potter films, Lord of the Rings and
the Hobbit, Sherlock Holmes (with Robert Downey Jr., also like Sherlock the TV
show), Aristocats, Braveheart, Robin Hood (with Kevin Costner and Morgan
Freeman), How to Train Your Dragon (Still going with my outrageous lists theme
here…)
Role
Model: Ummm… My parents? (Always the safe answer. And it’s true!)
Hobby:
Reading, watching TV and movies, listening to music, watching hockey, and
hanging out with animals. (I also love Renaissance Faires…)
Weird
Talent: Getting distracted? (Outside of work of course!) YouTube is the bane of
my existence (so many random things I didn’t know I wanted to know more
about!). I’m so good at getting distracted that it sometimes circles back
around to being productive! (Get to doing something that wasn’t what I needed
to do, but also needed to get done)
When
I am not working, I would rather be doing: see above (that’s pretty much it…).

Sarah David |
My
name is Sarah David, and I graduated from the George Washington University in
2014 with a degree in Biology. Since then I have had the opportunity to intern
at the Audubon Nature Institute in New Orleans and the National Aviary in
Pittsburgh, PA, after which I worked as an outdoor educator at Camp Allen,
outside of Houston, TX. My ultimate goal is to do community-based conservation
in developing countries, working to alleviate conflict between humans and the
wildlife they interact with on a daily basis. I hope to use the skills I
acquire in animal keeping and in animal behavior at IEAS to bridge gaps between
people and animals wherever I go.
