I'm graduating from high school next year, and when I go to college I want to major in Biology, but i'm not sure about what careers that offers, I don't want to be a vet, I would rather work with wildlife conservation.

  1. Alternative to biology you might want to consider majoring in geology.  Both avenues can land you a host of environmental careers.  To get an idea of whats out there check out some of the environmental job sites:


  2. wildlife biologist

  3. sounds like your an American so i have no idea how your course works but:

    im a natural resource manager student which opens up fields in  in areas like catchment management,

    working for department  of sustainability and environment (or whatever its called in different states and countries),  

    environment consultant

    general scientist in heaps of fields (botany, ecology, hydrology etc).

    soil scientist/ consultant

    fire ecologist (probably more jobs in aust than the usa :)

    environmental jobs are not well advertised and most people have trouble naming any environmental jobs but it is important to remember that the jobs are out there.

    i think that you need a general degree in environment science or similar and once you graduate choose a job in the direction you want to go. you will find plenty.

  4. you can become a game warden or conservation agent

  5. Marine biologist

    Ecologist

    Environmental Scientist

    Park Ranger

    Zookeeper

    And many, many more.  Try the site below.

  6. You could work for the department of fish and wildlife , The USGS does allot of studies on animals and fish,and NOAH are really good options .. NOAH and USGS will help with schooling.. Or at least they did for me... Good luck !

  7. Department of Natural Resources Wildlife Biologist.

  8. Here's some links to conservation-related careers in the US Government:
