How do u become a zookeeper or game warden?

Question

My boyfriend loves animals to death, it scares me at times but it's sweet, neway since he has such a love for all of gods creatures, and despite my fear of him being eaten or mauled he has been wondering what it would take to be a zookeeper or a game warden. (Ex. College, Tests, Training, Age) Any info would be appreciated, or if you can think of nething else he should try involving animals, oh we live in Texas if that helps.

Answer 1

Frankly, the best answer would come from your local zoo, or Park Service. Obviously, alot of Biology, study, a degree etc. They would be best suited to inform you how to become an exceptional candidate for such a position. Call the Zoo! Call the Park Service. Get a contact, get yourself known by name. Better yet, go in person. Notebook in hand. Be prepared, write down your questions before you get there, and get them answered. Hiring managers like myself, like prepared, enthusiastic inquiries.

Answer 2

Your bf would have to study zoology and biology. If you live near a zoo or state park, have him go down and talk to them. They would find him interesting and would let him know the exact ways. Most of the places also accept volunteers which would allow him to work in the field and learn more about it (make sure he likes it and really wants to do it) before he spends tons of money on college.

Typically you must spend 5-6 years as a professional prostitute then slowly change into a zookeeper.
