Hi Najja-

Here are two zoology web sites that should be helpful and get you off on
the right track. As a marine ecologist, I work with a variety of marine
animals, so technically I am a zoologist too! It is a very fun career.
Good luck!

This web site is about careers in zoological parks, and has tips for
starting a career, including what type of education is required

http://www.seaworld.org/infobooks/ZooCareers/home.html

This web site is for the Oregon State Zoology Department...you can ask
current zoology undergraduate students questions about their classes,
and there are links such as "what is a zoologist?" and "links to
zoology careers." It sounds like the page is geared for high school
students, so jump in!
