national geographic articles on biology
zoology???

so i have always been really interested in animals and zoology, and i was really good in biology when i took it and plan on taking bio. 2 next year, and hope to study biology or zoology in college, but last night i read this article in national geographic about animal behavior and the mental capacities of animals and such and i loved it.animal behvior and how they all coexsist and interact fascinates me. i would be so happy if i could work with stuff like that all the time but idk if a zoology major would be a practical choice. like where can you actually find jobs that work with and use this sort of stuff. i dont want just a list of different jobs, but it would be nice to hear from personal expierences.
answers please?? lol i just want to know where someone with these degrees works and what they do. like they become specialty-ologists but then who employs them, and what do they actually do with all their knowledge

I’m a professor of zoology/ecology and teach some behavioural ecology. You could get an academic job like mine and do animal behaviour research all day. If you don’t want a university career, there are many jobs that can put animal behaviour into practice. For example, knowledge of animal behaviour is important for the healthy and humane care of captive animals, so you could work in zoos, animal labs, animal shelters, for the SPCA, in animal husbandry (keeping livestock) etc. Behaviour is also becoming more widely used in conservation, so you could work for a conservation organisation (government or NGO). In my experience, if you really want to do something, you can make it happen. Have fun!!
