My brother-in-law works for a non-profit in New Jersey that does coastal conservation work. He normally spends his days writing grant applications, but the other day he got a call about a cold-stunned sea turtle and got to spend the morning rescuing it! He wrapped it in a towel and got to hang out with it while it recovered.

Probably more what he imagined the job would be when he first started working for an environmental non-profit, rather than applying for grants all the time…
