    As with many animal-related jobs, the low pay probably manages to automatically filter down applicants to only compassionate people that just want to help the little floofs. It’s a step above volunteer (of which many are present anyway).

    Ya, the posting is like this because they will still get tons of extremely qualified applicants. There are tons of IT, office, construction, whatever jobs, but there are not many “Work with or around wolves” jobs. They will probably get people with Masters degrees applying for this, maybe Ph.D. I applied for an animal control position and that was the case there.
