    Most 'herp' careers involve a zoology degree with a specialization in varying areas, which usually boils down to a herp type of career by work experience. I go to Mich. State and they dont have a herpetology degree, but I am a zoology major and could kind of tailor that to herps by working around them moreso than other animals.

    My son wants to go to the University of Montana and major in wildlife biology with a minor in zoology. He'll then get his Master's in the field that he chooses to specialize in :gj:
