Ever wonder what it would be like to actually live and work at Busch Gardens in Tampa Bay? Make yourself at home with our exciting Resident Camps. Spend a week working side-by-side with veterinarians, trainers and other animal care experts. Learn from them as you help to feed, interact with, and care for the animals that make your favorite park amazing.

Make friends with giraffes, great apes, or lemurs, plus ride heart-pounding rides like SheiKra.  Meet other young people who share your love for animals and your interest in making this world a better place. 

From fifth grade all the way up through college, you can enjoy a unique experience that has brought us animal-loving guests from across the U.S. and around the world.
