LINCOLN — A Northeastern University co-op student is getting an up-close education in wildlife care at a Lincoln sanctuary, according to a feature the university published this week.

COMMUNITY & ARTS

Aidan Doherty, a Northeastern University student, spent his co-op term working hands-on with animals at a wildlife sanctuary in Lincoln, according to a Northeastern University News feature published Aug. 28. The story describes Doherty at a wooden workbench cluttered with feeding pans and supplies, surrounded by wire enclosures, as he moved between aviaries, barns and pens caring for the sanctuary's resident animals.

The piece offers a look at the unglamorous, hands-on work behind the scenes at one of the wildlife facilities that call Lincoln home, from feeding routines to daily animal husbandry, the kind of work that shapes the experience for students Northeastern places in town through its co-op program.
