Most colleges and Universities have Associate degrees,\nbut nowadays, it's not woth much, as a 4 year degree is equivalant to what a high shool degree was 10 or 15 years ago.  That is because a lot more people are getting to college.

I found several... there are approximately 75 within the US.  \n\nIn the link I posted you can fill out what you want in a college, or example, state, size, cost... the best part is you can pick major (Zoology/animal biology is listed under Biological and biomedical sciences.)  Just fill out all the questions and it will give you a list of schools.  \n\nhttp://www.usnews.com/usnews/edu/college/tools/brief/cosearch_advanced_brief.php

Actually, everyone, there are only 45 STATES in the United States. The other 5 are Commonwealths. They have different Constitutions and their governments work slightly different. I do not remember all 5 Commonwealths, but Massecheusetts and Virginia are two of them. \n\nTo call them states does make it easier, though.
