How long do you have to go to college to become an animal rescuer?

Answer 1

An entry level position at a zoo requires a bachelor's degree in one of the following animal science, zoology, conservation Biology, wildlife management, animal behaviour which takes 3-4 years of university to complete. If your looking into caring for marine animals you will need a bachelor's degree in animal science, biology, marine biology, zoology, pyschology, plus have strong swimming skills and a Scuba certification, which is 3-4 years of university.

Chance of advancement is possible but rather limited. Being a zookeeper is not a glamorous, or even a high paying job. Zookeepers with limited education and experience start at minimum wage. A median salary for zookeeper is about $14 per hour or $28,00 a year. The top zookeepers can make more than $40,000 with benefits. You should have a love of animals.

Answer 2

At least long enough to learn that you don't put "an" before the word "zoologist". I'd say like 3 years, yeah that sounds about right.

at the minimum two.

first you study a first diploma in animal care. this takes a year.

then you study a national diploma in animal management.

after that you are free to go study zoology and become a zoologist

Answer 3

Technically you could probably obtain a Bachelors degree in Zoology in 3 or 4 years depending on your program. However, to work as a modern Zoologist you are best to have a Masters or better yet a Doctorate in Zoology, which would take you an addition 2-3 years. I would say on average, it would take about 7 years to become a working, respected Zoologist.
