Before heading out to the Wild Animal Park's Heart of Africa enclosure, interns pose for a quick group photo. With interns, bales of hay, acacia branches, and buckets of apples, the back of the truck was tightly packed during the short excursion to Africa.

Intern Curtis eagerly feeds apples to an Indian rhino. This animal represents one of the most endangered species housed at the Park with a total of only 2,000 individuals both in zoos and in the wild.

After feeding the rhinos, interns assisted in feeding the giraffes as well. Intern Mateo feeds the alpha male giraffe, Saba, his favorite snack of acacia leaves and pellets.
