This week’s podcast episode is a continuation of a three part series discussing the results of a survey I conducted on aspiring wildlife biologists, ecologists, zoologists, and conservation biologists. If you missed parts 1 and 2, make sure to catch up with episodes #68 and #69.

Or listen on Apple, Spotify, or Stitcher podcasts.

To recap, a couple of months ago, I put up a post on social media asking for people in wildlife biology, ecology, or zoology careers to help me out with some research.

The main question I asked to the people I interviewed was: “What is the problem you are struggling with most in regard to this career?”

In this episode, I cover the remaining answers given by people. The responses cover a large spectrum of issues that need to be addressed in our field such as facing potential discrimination against age or chronic health issues, salaries, and getting into or finding schools.
