Im not real sure but i think curating, directing, or zookeeping. Heres a few sites dont know if they'll serve as useful.\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------\nJobs a zoologist can do:\n\nThere's many different jobs that a zoologist can do, from being a lab technician, to a veterinarian, to being an animal caretaker/trainer/breeder, to being a wildlife biologist. Each job requires different experience, training, and each has different tasks specific to a job.

after zoology you can go for\n 1. research in any of the branch of zoology\n 2.you can be a teacher in zoology\n 3. you can go for wild life photography\n 4. you can go for animal culture\n 5. and there are lot more options in zoology......  \n\n \n\n\n .............which you can do if you want

You can prob work for the DEP or the EPA.  They always need environmental biologist.

Science qualifications are a big bonus, you don't have to have a degree in Zoology, but it would probably be a good idea to study it because you'd find it interesting!\n\nThe thing you're going to need most though is determination - there are hundreds and hundreds of people going after just a few jobs. Do everything you can to get experience in school and university - volunteer for everything going, at your local park, nature centre, zoo, go on overseas expeditions. \nIt's also probably a good idea to get some media experience - join the student paper, radio or tv station if your uni has one.\n\nGood luck! (I'll be fighting you for those jobs all the way!)

I have a degree in zoology and work as a wildlife biologist.  I love what I do.  I am outdoors all day, pretty much make my own schedule, get to do a lot of travel(have studied birds in the arctic tundra in Alaska, Florida, Tennessee,  Colorado and throughout California, and my job is always changing so I don't get bored.  One day I'll work with birds, the next reptiles or fish.  You can also work as a zookeeper with a biology degree or go into vet school.  You might also look into majoring in Biology or wildlife studies and see which program looks most interesting to you.  Hands on experience is a must.  Try to get in some volunteer work to see what you can expect and what you are best at and what you like to do the best.

It depends on where they're employed. They may be teachers, or they may be researchers. They may be animal caretakers.

There are five main functions of a modern zoo.  These are: Conservation, Reproduction, Education, Research and Recreation.  Zoos have made valuable contributions to protecting the threatened wildlife of the earth. If it weren’t for zoos, many species would be extinct today.  Zoos give wild animals with NO chance a LAST chance.\n\nConservation:  \nZoos play a fundamental role in the conservation of endangered and threatened species all over the world.  Aside from breeding endangered animals, conservation consists of the rescue and preservation of existing animals.  In tropical rainforests alone, we lose 100 species every day, 4 species per hour, due to tropical deforestation.  At current rates, 5 – 10% of tropical forest species will become extinct every decade.\n\nWhile a large part of conservation is the breeding of animals, conservation begins with the other branch of preservation of animals, which is simply housing them.  Whether an animal was living in a particularly dangerous or volatile environment or whether its species had simply become so very low in numbers that human intervention became necessary, zoos have provided safe havens for endangered animals for many years. \n\nAll over the world, animal populations suffer as their natural habitats are destroyed or taken over.  Even though in many cases the destruction of an animal's habitat is a result of human progress, at times the survival of a species requires human assistance.  \n\nSome zoos even participate in conservation projects outside of their walls.  For example, many zoos sponsor efforts to preserve natural habitats of threatened or endangered species, such as the Asian bamboo forests that are home to the giant panda and the South American rain forests that are home to the lion tamarin, a species of small monkeys.  These and other animals might not survive without preservation efforts made by zoos across the country.   The overall goal of many zoos is to create and conserve healthy populations that can someday be reintroduced into the wild.\n\nReproduction: \nThe role of zoos in breeding animals, especially endangered species, is an important one.  Between 2,000 and 6,000 animal species will become extinct in the near future without human intervention.  Zoos focusing on captive breeding can call themselves conservation centers since they are helping in the fight to save endangered species.\n\nA well-managed zoo can breed animals faster than the animals might breed in an otherwise troubled area in the wild.  Captive breeding has saved such species as the European Bison, the Hawaiian Goose, and the Arabian Oryx, a type of antelope, from extinction.\n\nZoos around the world lend and trade animals with each other through the Species Survival Plan (SSP) in order to avoid inbreeding, which can lead to a weaker population, and promote a healthier, more diverse group of animals.  Many zoos also participate in the International Species Information System (ISIS), a computerized inventory of more than 250,000 animals housed in zoos throughout the world.  ISIS maintains ancestral records for the animals to help document the animals' genetic backgrounds.    \n\nEducation:\nAlthough few people visit a zoo with education in mind, most modern zoos believe their primary mission is to educate the public.  Zoos are able to alter human perceptions about animals because they are places where people can really get to know animals.  In modern zoos, people can see, hear and smell animals in recreations of their natural environments.\n\nThe broader goal of zoo education is not just to teach about animals, or even our relationship with animals, but also to teach about the entire natural world and our place in it.  Zoos offer guided tours, workshops for students, teachers and the general public, lectures and other activities to promote animal education.  Many also work with local colleges and offer apprenticeship programs to people interested in zoo related careers.\n\nPeopl

Zoo keepers do not work closely with animals - they manage the people who do...\n\nYou will need biology, nutrition, business management, accounting and human resource skills.\n\nThere are not too many zookeeper jobs in the states and most are city, county jobs that go to doctors or other people with a masters or better degree.  You would still most likely need a vet certification too.

This is not a Zoology question. I'll try to help you out anyway.\nCourses to apply for: Sleepy Time, You Have Munchies, Get Off the Couch and Do Something (advanced students only!).\nSober up, dude.

Do a search on the web...there are actually some really good environmental job websites.  I have a degree in Zoology and work as a wildlife biologist...and have found all my jobs via job websites.  There are a lot of teaching opportunites for someone like you...not necessarily classroom teaching...but camps that allow you to teach in an outdoor setting.

You won't know till you try. Go for it. \n\nAccording to the http://www.bls.gov/k12/nature01.htm site the job is a growing field, but not easy to find because of large numbers of applicants. \n\nCheck some zoos online. I found this list at the San Diego Zoo:\nhttp://www.sandiegozoo.org/CF/jobs/JobResults.cfm

as a zoological cell biologist, you could even get a job working with human cell biology ... human or veterinary (agricultural animal) field is probably a more likely place to find a job than the general animal field.

Try a mini ecosystem in a 2-liter coke bottle. Study it for a few months and see how it changes. Record what plants and animals you put in too.I suggest putting in some worms, moss, and an up-right plant
