Studying animals in their natural habitats is what wildlife biologists do best. Whether they are repairing damaged environments, surveying various species or tracking an animal's movement, they are continually on the go. Wildlife biologists collect and then analyze all of that data in order to learn more about nature and its creatures.

How much schooling you need depends on what area you would like to work in. If you want to be the one developing and asking the questions, you're going to need more schooling, such as a graduate degree in Wildlife Biology, Zoology or Botany. If you're interested in working with a team to find out the answer to someone else's questions, go for a degree in biological sciences. You should also take lots of math and science when you're in high school. For a more in depth look at this field, check out gURL's interview with Denise Breitburg, marine biologist.

Who knows, maybe someday you could be responsible for saving an endangered species or teaching a clinic on ways to preserve wildlife habitats.
