lol ya i love them wolves, i actully took a 6 month brake to work with tigers and other large cats, but the wolves called me back after that. Dont think i will ever work in an office if i can help it.

 

[Little Wise Owl]

I will be graduating Sheridan College's Animal Care/Vet Assistant Program in April and will hopefully be working full time in a vet's office. I'm hoping to further my knowledge in animal nutrition seeing as that's what I'm studying on my own more than half the time as well as gain some experience at the well known reptile zoo in Vaughan, ON.

That sounds like fun! Any idea if you want to work in a herp vet clinic or cat/dog?

At the moment I'll be working for our family cat/dog/horse vet but I'd love to work at a herp or holistic/homeopathic vet office.

 

[Bwindi]

I am currently the reptile caretaker at North Dakota State University and in my third year of a zoology bachelors degree. When I'm not taking care of the herps, I work in a laboratory studying the flight metabolic rate of the leaf cutter bee.

What wolf center do you work at? I am from Ely, MN and they have a great bear and wolf center!

 

[chelvis]

I work at the California Wolf Center, i mainly work with a group of Mexican Gray Wolves but we do have a pack of Alaskan grays as well. I have heard of the place out in Ely and have been told by many guest i should go and check it out. I had planned on it if i got into the Isle Royal project but i did not get in so not this year, maybe next year.
