I’m going into wildlife and conservation veterinary medicine!

I’m only twelve and everyone says I’m to young to know what I want my job to be but I love animals so much. All animals not just dogs and cats! I think rats and spiders and snakes are cute too! And pigs and cows and horses. You are so right in saying that most people think of small animal vets. I didn’t used to want to be a vet because I couldn’t bear the thought of surgery and amputation. But now I know there are other things you can do being a vet. I just found your channel and love it SO much I subscribed right away! Thank you for inspiring me to become a vet and helping me understand what it means to be a vet.

I so badly want to be an Equine Vet who specialises in hoof and leg care. Horses have been in my life since I was five (11 and a half years!) And I've always wanted to work with them. The plan is to go in the Marines, have them pay for college, and do farrier and vet tech school. I love my horses so much and I'd be honored to take care of them and other peoples horses

Thank you Soo much for this video I just started college and I am so excited to look more into the different careers with being a vet I honestly can't wait 😄

Thank you so much. This video helped me a lot.

Thankyou! I appreciate the videos so much💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Thank you so much for making this video! I never really thought about how many different opportunities there were! I will definitely be considering the rescue field. I've always wanted to help rescue animals, but I didn't realize I could do veterinary work in just that field specifically. Exotic/zoo medicine is also one I will consider. Thanks again for making this video!

thank you so much for this video!!!!! so helpful and informative!!

Thank you so much for this video!!!! I’m so excited for vet school and all the career options to help animals! I can’t decide they all sound so great. I’m with u on spiders tho I couldn’t do that either. I don’t like snakes either at least not the ones that bite. My friend got bit really badly one time and it scared me so no lol

Thank you for this video! It was super interesting and motivated me even more to pursue my dream job! I’m starting college to become a vet in september (in Belgium, small european country), I’m finishing my last high school year. I plan on becoming a large animals vet and work in the countryside (hopefully in France) with farmers and their livestock. (Sorry for my english it’s not my mother tongue)

This is so informative! I'm currently a college student going in my third year and I'm most interested in small animal, wildlife conservation, behavior medicine, and shelter medicine. Hopefully I can explore and find my path!

Excellent video.

Thank you so much for this. 💕

Hi! I’m so glad I found this video. I’m still in high school but I’m really interested in being a zoo veterinarian. All these other fields seem awesome but something about working with exotic animals seems incredible. I’m hoping to get a summer internship at my local small vet practice, do you have any advice?

Your videos are really helpful, there aren’t too many videos out there for vet students. I’m wanting to do marine mammals but I can’t find hardly any info on that. Any advice?

Hi, I know this is a bit late, but I'm going to be a senior high student this school year and I'm taking STEM as my strand. I am planning on taking veterinary medicine as my course in college because I really want to work in this field. I've been thinking about this since sophomore year in junior high school, but my family are discouraging me on taking this course. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Edit: Also, I am interested in the field you are currently in residence for during the making of this video. Because ever since I started highschool I am already exposed to researches, be it physical science or life science, since I am a part of a Science and Technology Program. And I have always been inspired by my seniors or even other students that have been part of a scientific, medical breakthroughs. This video sure helps a lot, so thank you.

I love this i am a vet assistant i have my vet assistant certification and i want to be a veterinarian i would love to specialize in small animals and exotics but I don’t know where to start to become a veterinarian

Natural science centers. I saw where in Raleigh, NC a vet was needed there too. They’ve got quite a few exotic animals there. A female sloth is there right now and a couple larger snapping turtles. I also know there’s quite a few snakes there, also there are a few other little guys and gals in there who like to hide. And there’s a boatload of butterflies in the butterflies display are.

Thank you so much!! I know I'm late, but I really want to be a vet. I'm about to be a junior in high school and didn't know what to pursue until last year. I'm so excited to work with animals. I'm starting early with becoming a vet which I hope isn't bad. Anyways, thank you so much for the helpful information.

I think it'd be lovely to specialize solely on avian life, but I also love helping cats. It's definitely going to be a tough choice, considering the two would not mix in a small clinic.

Hi Samantha, If your interested in becoming an exotics veterinarian, I recommend shadowing one in your area. Try an exotic small animal practice (amphibians, mini pigs, birds), conservation & wildlife vet (audobon society or wildlife sanctuary or zoo medicine

Do you have to have a DVM for all of these positions? Of course to practice veterinary medicine you have to be a licensed veterinarian, but for example, could you work as a behaviorist, nutritionist, in public outreach, etc. without a DVM but with a degree in a related field (Psychology, Animal Science, Food Science, etc.) ?

Can anyone think of a veterinary field career that will take up like a four-year bachelors degree to earn? Let’s say that I wouldn’t want to do the eight years to be a veterinarian, but I want a level above a vet technician. Any ideas for this?

Hi, Im a second year veterinary student. I love to work with animals so I choose this field and Im considering to take on animal psychology with the degree someday 😁Do you have any advice on what opportunities to look for in order to specialize in animal behavior after getting the degree. Also, do you think specializing in animal behavior will be a time consuming career as a veterinarian? Thank you! 😊😀😀

Hi Lonewolf. Thanks for watching. You can work as a zoo veterinarian with a 4 year veterinary degree. If you would like to become board certified as an expert in the field you can also complete a residency (+2-3) years but it's not mandatory. A Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine means you are qualified to practice on multiple species. For example, in One week I may work with 10 different species. That's one of the joys of the profession.

What options are there for vet assistant who are just interested in Avian medicine?

Hi Angela As a veterinarian you can work with multiple species, as many as you feel comfortable with. For specialized training, most vets choose one or two areas because of the time it takes. For example, my specialty is lab animal medicine so I am completing a 3 year residency to become board certified as an expert in the field. But I still work in general practice.
