Whats the best route to take to get a career with reptiles.

Ideally I'd like to work in a reptile house in a zoo.

Ive been looking into university courses in zoology-herpetology,
but i need 3 A levels in Biology and another science.
I only have 1 A level and it's in drama lol, so I dont think that helps.

Any ideas what other paths there are to go down?

0.1.0 Normal (Espher)
1.0.0 Snow (Midnight)

2 GALS
1 rat (Jasper)
1 very needy staffy (Coco)

you could look in to HNC animal care courses not sure what the entry levels are for them though. I did my Btec extended national diploma in animal management which gave me the equvilant of 4 A levels so you could always do some thing like that first. if i remeber right its free as well if you dont already have a level 3 qualification in that subject. hope thats some help to you!!!


1.0.1 Corns
0.1.0 Dog: springer
1.0.0 Horse
0.4.0 Gerbils
2.2.0 Leopard gecko
0.2.0 Cave gecko
