Skyler’s Answer

If you are getting just a Bachelor's degree, then things like working at a zoo, aquarium, national park, wildlife refuge, wildlife rehabilitation center, and you may be able to participate in research. I would suggest looking around at places that directly deal with the kinds of organisms you are interested in and seeing if they list any requirements on their job application pages. Good luck hope that helps!
