Hi Ally,
There are a lot of options out there, with fields in care and conservation of wildlife, animal training, education and a variety of closely related fields that use animal interaction in their work.
Here is an article on working with animals:

Some careers are hard but that is also what makes them great. If you have a passion for it then it will not be so hard. You'll enjoy it.

Here's a list from the Occupational Outlook Handbook
Each has a link that will tell you what the job involves, what training is required, how much people earn in that field, and whether it's considered a growth industry; as well as external links to related organizations.

Contact your local Zoo. I am a zoologist. I don't know where you live but most big cities have invested in a public Zoological park. In Jacksonville Florida I have many friends and students that work at the Zoo. loligo1@yahoo.com

You can try other fields like Marine Biology or Zoology. If you just want to be trained to do something and not really have to go to school get a job at a pet store where they can teach you to train animals and you can conduct obedience training for puppies if you like. I hope you find something that you like to do, best of luck to you.

You can be an animal trainer or work at a zoo. Animal trainers usually have a degree in Child psychology.
