I dont now if im in the right forum or not so if im not be nice

hi my name is angela and i live in Windsor ONT.

I would like to ask about reptile careers. i now a lot about reptiles and i think i want a career in this field but i dont know were to start. i am going into grade 12 in september and i have no idea were im going after highschool.

I now that i may not pass in university so ill have to go to collage. i am horrible in math. I dont really want to be a exotic vet or a vet tech.And the most experience ive had was in co-op at a veterinary clinic.

could someone please help me.I would like a list of any reptile career that i may fit into.

Well, getting a Bachelor's degree is the way to go, and you might want to go for the Master's as well. I'd say, join a herping club, get out there and make connections, and you'll be a herper.

Welcome to ReptileChannel. I agree that joining a herp club will help. The knowledge and experience you will be surrounded by will certainly help. You will also make some good contacts and "networking" works in any field.

Here are three links that will help:

Good Luck
