Volunteer

The DuMond Conservancy welcomes volunteers interested in helping care for our owl monkeys by preparing their special diets, managing and improving their enclosures and restoring the ecology of the naturally forested area they live in.  In our effort to provide quality care we also create engaging foraging activities as enrichment for our owl monkeys (click here to see videos of owl monkeys enjoying enrichment).  We also welcome help with general administrative duties and with organizing our special events.  Our volunteer program has a strong educational component and our volunteers are encouraged to learn about the natural history and biology of our closest living relatives.

We offer volunteer opportunities on weekends (10 am to 2pm) and by arrangement during the week.  If you are interested in volunteering, please contact us to schedule an interview.

We are also a service learning site for Miami Dade College and Hands On Miami.
