To be honest, I didn't have much time with a mentor, I've been so busy with science fair data and model assembly that I couldn't fit in time to see the vet. I have about five hours clocked in at the southern california animal hospital.
I have about three possible mentorships at other veterinarian clinics, one of them deals with exotic animals. Over break I plan to settle down with one and start learning.
I also have a chance to volunteer at the Zoo, so in a sence i would be in contact with wildlife, but not learn any veterinarian skills..
I will keep this updated over break and get back to you!

Senior project update
I am currently volunteering at an Animal hospital/vet clinic. I've gained vaulable experience, hoping to learn more about the medecine and medical procedures. So far i've been in touch with the animals, helping restrain while they do procedures and learning about diseases illnesses and treatments. I remained in contact with a few other organaizations and am trying to find a wildlife conservation or rehab center where i can further my serivce learning.
The most important research I have gotten so far was one with an organization at Wildlife Waystation. Allison was very enthusiastic about her job, and told me a couple of fun and interesting facts. I also talked to a few other people at different rehab centers (They were too far to volunteer at) And they all shared the same undying passion for protecting animals.
