Ike Takes Flight (so to speak)
The end of summer is approaching. The first thing that comes to mind is, where did the time go?! Didn’t I just arrive here at NMLC to embark on a summer journey that would ultimately teach me so much, not only about marine mammals and conservation, but about myself and my career goals? My last […]

What a summer!
There is no other way to describe this summer at the National Marine Life Center besides amazing. After the first few weeks slowed down the education programs picked up and I found myself assisting in the Little Flippers and Marine Animal Medical Mystery programs. Eventually the other interns and I ran the programs on our […]
Summer Internship: Reflection

It’s been quite an interesting start to my summer internship here at the NMLC. My first day was at the Burrage Pond turtle release event where I finally met all the other interns and staff. Being my first time in these lands, I had yet to acquire that oh so critical sense of direction and […]
Alisia’s Exciting First Weeks At NMLC!
When I first learned that I had been accepted as a 2012 Summer Intern at the National Marine Life Center the words excited and overjoyed could not describe exactly how I felt. Being only in college for two going on three years, internships do not come easy and I was a bit nervous for my […]
First Day of Summer – Basking Red Bellied Cooters
Now that the first official day of summer has come and gone our red bellied cooters are enjoying the heat. Four of the cooters currently in our hospital are suffering from metabolic bone disease, which causes malformation of the skeleton and shell as well as metabolic irregularities. I was not familiar with metabolic bone disease […]
Looking Back on a Great Summer
Many of our visitors tell us when they come in that the National Marine Life Center is a place that they have driven by many times but never been inside. Like them, I knew very little about the treasures that lay inside the “big building with the whales on it.” That was, of course, until […]
New England Aquarium Intern Adventure!
This Monday, the interns at the National Marine Life Center started off their week with a visit to the New England Aquarium in Boston! It was quite the adventure exploring the exhibits with three other students interested in marine life. A small competition of who knew the most or the coolest fact soon surfaced. We enjoyed sharing facts […]
