Various volunteer opportunities are available at the Myakka
City Lemur Reserve. They range from grounds maintenance
activities including planting trees, pruning, weeding,
gardening, trail maintenance and mulching to painting and other
construction projects, and assisting with animal husbandry
duties.
Most jobs are outside and involve physical labor,
requiring the ability to stand for significant periods of time
and lift heavy objects. Volunteers must be able to
tolerate high temperatures and humidity. All volunteers
must bring proof of a negative TB test done within one year
prior to working on the reserve.
