I work as a wildlife biologist for a private company here in Cali and I'm trying to get my research data done so I can write my thesis and be done with grad school. I have a BS in Biology (Ecology and Evolution) and did a few undergrad projects at the time and after grad school, I may go doctorate if the turtle surveys we are just starting up go well. The downside of my job is that you occasionally have to stand in the pouring rain at 11pm listening for frog calls or trying to radiotrack pregnant turtles and you must be willing to live on top ramen for the first few years......Originally Posted by Jerhart
I am sooooo studying the wrong thing. Kat, I am sure you have said this before, but what do you do? And what was your background on getting there? I am very jealous. The closest thing I can do to that is restoring habitat. ...if I were to go out and catch some critters, I would just get 'eeeewwwwww, what are doing!?' responses from my coworkers.
Thanks for sharing the pics!
It's not for everyone, but I wouldn't trade it.
Cheers,
Kat
