    Every two years, the federal government puts out a nifty book called the Occupational Outlook Handbook. Here is the entry for zoologists with links to take you to other helps and websites.

    Zoologists

    You could become an animal chiropractor or a behaviorist, you could work at a SeaWorld type place or go on safaris in Africa and be a tour guide. Every country has animals (and they are being hunted and many are endangered). The possibilities are wide open for zoologists!

    Details on zoology
    I know I'm a bit young to be thinking this now, but I think the longer you know your job and details the better!
    Here are the questions I want to know and any details possible would be greatly appreciated :
    Where is the best uni to study zoology?
    Types (the more the better)
    Best country?
    How many years in uni?(roughly)
    Good job choice?
    Pay?(roughly)
    Lots of the research I've done have said about working in labs, I want to actually work with animals (zoo wouldn't be the first choice) that's what I'm looking for when I say types,
    Thank you for all your help!:) <3

    Most of your questions are answered in the link "Zoologists" I mentioned in an earlier post.
