    Do you live near a zoo? If so, become a volunteer, especially in the reptile house, if possible. Go to a local community college and take classes in biology and zoology. Or volunteer or work for an area vet who has reptile clients. Go to your public library and read read read books on reptiles as pets (636) and in the wild (500s).

    Here's the Z section of the current Occupational Outlook Handbook (the library has a paper copy to check out).
