What degrees do you need in college to become an exotic animal trainer?

Most employers will prefer a degree in Biology, Zoology, or Animal Science to start. Experience with animals is extremely important and I would say as equally important as the degree. I recently got a job as an animal trainer with exotics. I don't have a degree but am in the process of a BS and hope to get a Masters in Wildlife Science thereafter. But I did work in a pet store for 6 years working closely with large birds and a wildlife rescue for 2 years working with large cats and other exotics. You can always become a certified dog trainer and work your way from there. Some theme parks such as sea world have shows that use exotics besides marine animals and you can get your foot in the door that way. Also try volunteering for any local exotic rescues- that was probably what got me the job was my experience around lions, bears, etc. It is an amazing job to get into, if you really work hard you could make it into a career. I'm only 22 and am in love with my job! Not many people can say that.

How much training is required to be an animal trainer?
To become a professional animal trainer, you will need to become certified. Depending on the state that you are in, it could require years of experience and/or schooling. To own a business, or work as a trainer for an employer, you will most likely need a certification, no matter what state you are in. This proves that you have been professionally educated. Dog trainers typically go through a basic schooling program to become certified, but the process to be an exotic animal trainer can be much more rigorous. I recommend looking up the requirements in your state to become a certified animal trainer (depending on the type of animals you are looking to train). Each state, program and level of certification are going to be different.
