I am getting ready to grad school for my Masters in Zoology. I plan on focusing on mammals. I have spent time in the past studying mammals...anything from identification, to field work. I love it. If I didn't I wouldn't be going to grad school.

I often work as a field biologist (herpetologist); it is interesting work, i have always been fascinated by wildlife. I usually work on wildlife surveys finding out what animals live in a particular habitat, so I spend time spotlighting and setting traps (that don't hurt the animals) and looking for droppings and scratch marks made by different species. I really enjoy the work, although it is often long hours and hard work, but the difficulty is it is usually short term contracts, so I wouldn't want to rely on it as an exclusive skill or source of income.

I volunteer at http://www.paws.org once a week feeding baby songbirds. It's exhausting, but it's very fun and interesting. I get to see all types of baby birds including crows, stellars jays, juncos, kinglets, robins, sparrows, cedar waxwings, grosbeaks, flickers and towhees. I also get to see them grow up and be released back into the wild.

My friend worked at an Alligator Farm as a feeder and he was getting ready to be promoted to Manager when he lost his arm.
