Answer
I'm not sure how many places a 13 yr old can volunteer at. :-(
Talk to your career counselor at school, they might be able to give you advise an places to volunteer.
I know you want to work at Sea World, so you might want to look into a marine-related camp.
Other things you might want to see about are: beach clean ups, volunteering at an animal shelter, or some of the other things suggested below.
Sorry about the age restrictions. :-(
You'll get older. :-p
Glad to help again. Good Luck.

Zoological Park Careers
Tips for Starting Your Zoological Career
VOLUNTEER
....Call your nearest zoo or aquatic park and ask for details on becoming a volunteer (also called a docent or intern). Humane societies, animal rehabilitation clinics, and some veterinary clinics also welcome volunteers. Although your duties with a humane society or veterinary clinic will most likely involve working indirectly with animals (cleaning cages and preparing food), volunteer duties at a zoo or aquatic park range from filing or answering phones to being trained to make educational presentations or feed newly hatched birds.....
San Diego Zoo
So you want to be a keeper? (Keeper FAQs)
What are some other ways to gain animal experience?
Some places to look for volunteer jobs or internships might be:
⢠Veterinary offices
⢠Animal training classes (does your dog need obedience training?)
⢠Local Humane Society
⢠Local Park Service
⢠Wildlife rehabilitation centers (like for wolves, bears, big cats, birds of prey, and even bats)
⢠Animal shelters
⢠Farms (for domestic animals, or even ostrich, llama, or butterfly farms)
⢠Pet breeders (those that breed specific kinds of dogs, cats, or horses)
⢠Horse stables and boarding facilities
⢠4-H Clubs
Saint Louis Zoo
So You Want to be a Zookeeper?
If You're in Secondary School
* Begin preparing for a zoo career by reading about animals, observing them, and associating with "animal" people. (And be sure to check out the suggestions we've listed above for elementary school students -- they could apply to you too.)
* Tell your middle school or high school guidance counselors if you're interested in pursuing an animal-related career. They'll help you choose the right classes to help prepare you for further education in college.
* If you're old enough to get a part-time job, consider working or volunteering at a pet shop, veterinary hospital, animal shelter, livestock farm, horse stable, pet breeder or even a zoo, if possible. This kind of work can help you gain valuable experience that could be helpful in a zoo career. For more information on the Saint Louis Zoo's volunteer opportunities for people 15 years and older, click on Volunteer.
* If you live in the St. Louis area, consider enrolling in our Keeper for a Day program, for students in Grades 2 through 8. Working alongside a keeper in our Children's Zoo, you'll go behind the scenes to help care for some of our zoo animals, and learn what it takes to be a zookeeper.
* When you're considering which colleges or universities to attend, find those that specialize in programs of particular value to professional zoo work. These include general biology, zoology, (including specialty subjects like mammalogy, herpetology, etc.), wildlife and forestry, animal husbandry, ecology, veterinary medicine and ethology (animal behavior).

where can a 15 year old volunteer at that loves animals or even at a hospital? any ideas?
sandluver2
The kind of volunteer work I'm looking for is one that works with animals, like a shelter of some kind in seal or long beach or even working at a hospital.
Answer
You can work at any of those places - animal shelters, sea life centres or your local hospital. Just write to them/ring up/ or even visit explaining that you would like some experience. You need to be proactive, and most likely they'll appreciate your help and be encouraged by your enthusiasm. Plus it will look great on your cv in the future. So go for it!
