Animal Career?!
Also, what are good colleges for these majors in Texas or in the U.S.?
Answers: In 2 years, I will be in college. I really want to do a career with helping animals. I either want to do marine biology, environmentalism, animal cop, or open my own animal shelter. The question is, what do I major in if I want to open my own animal shelte, or become an animal protection cop? And, is it hard? Any advice is VERY appreciated! =]

Veterinary Medicine I would suggest U of Florida they have a wonderful Vet Medicine School. Marine Biology I would suggest University of Miami they work with the Miami Seaquarium and have a fantastic program.
If you want to run an animal shelter or work with Cruelty, you still need the basics of vet medicine. I would suggest some psych courses as well, as you are gonna meet some really questionable people and you need to learn how to deal with them. I applaud your goals and dreams, all the best to you..
You can try Texas A&M or Cornell, as for majors it varies from college to college. Some have zoology, ecology, veteniary programs, and others don't
Animal cops have to kill(euthanize)animals so I suggest being a marine biologist.I admire people who open no kill shelters but I know that it takes alot of money to run them.Good luck.
I am an animal lover all the way it really wouldn't matter 2 me as long as i helping a cause for animals but if i had to choose it would either enviormentalism or marine biology i just love animals they like mean the world to me as well as friends and family of course lol... xoxo lovely
If you want to choose a job that is both EXTREAMLY lucrative AND extremely personally satisfying then go for Environmentalism and/or any of the other "Green" jobs that are staring to spring up around the globe...
By the time you get out of college you will be in the front lines of the New Employment Revolution.
