1 Answer

Answer :

I took some classes in wildlife biology and ecology when I was a bio major in college and I have a friend getting her PhD in ecology. My life’s career isn’t going in that direction but I wish you the best of luck. These days, because I am a vegan and an environmentalists, all the key concepts you’ll be learning about are very relevant to me and I try to educate myself as much as possible. Maybe you’ll have something to teach us. Welcome to fluther.
