They Work With Wildlife: Jobs for People Who Want to Work With Animals
reviewed on


You may know that you want to work with wildlife, but you probably wonder...how, and where, and what kinds of jobs are out there? In this book, the author introduces you to a field biologist who studies elephants in an African jungle, a keeper at a large marine aquarium, a wildlife manager,a game warden--he even explains how he got started in his own field as a nature writer.

Many varieties of jobs are clearly defined and described in this fascinating book for young people. The author presents a realistic analysis of what type of education is needed for what kind of job, how much time each job allows you to spend outdoors, and even what agencies you might want to get in touch with. "They Work with Wildlife" is an invaluable handbook for those who love wild creatures and want to be among the thousands of men and women who nuture and protect them for a living.
