Well, from my previous post I guess you guys can see where my interests l lie. I am a senior biology major at Texas A&M- Corpus Christi and I will be graduating in August. So here is my question. Where do you think would be best for me to start out if I want a career in research or taking care of herps? My basic problem is that I have no experience other than my own personal collection of lizards and frogs and a little sporadic volunteering at the now defunct Corpus Christi Zoo. Up until the beginning of this semester I always thought that would go to med school, but I now have decided that I would be much happier dealing with the herps I love. I am thinking about continuing on either towards a vet degree or a masters and PhD, but I am looking into working for a year or so. Most of the jobs i have seen (mostly zoos and such) ask for years of experience. Any advice would be awesome. Thank you in advance,

Bryan
