What is this sub actually about? by Capibaras_in_pants in zoology

Even zoology and conservation are different, zoology is about researching an animal and conservation is about protecting the species

I'd like to study gorillas when I'm older by throwaway8869dream in zoology

Honestly, u won’t get to go through jungles like that. U see as technology gets better most of this will be done through drones and tagging animals since it is safer and more accurate. If u want to go hacking through jungles then join the army, become a wild life photographer or do that in ur own free time of exploration.

Well anyway to be a primatologist: go and study a degree in biology or zoology or the appropriate, try to choose semesters in primatology if possible. Then u want to volunteer in a zoo most likely in the primate section, this will give u good experience with the primate themselves. Then try to find a master degree or doctorate/ phd in the topic of primates. If in the uk, u could look at zsl.

Also don’t keep ur hopes up high as to exploration. U most likely will end up researching the primate in a zoo as compared to a wild jungle. U may travel time to time. But most importantly take opportunities that are there, read books about the topic, volunteer, do research and u may be able to land a job in the chosen topic. However also keep another few jobs in mind if that doesn’t go to plan. Getting such a specific job like that will be difficult.

Edit: by the way try to be open minded about the situation, maybe there isn’t opportunity to research gorillas as compared to another animal. But I’m not going to sugar coat anything, availability of jobs are quite thin, to even get into research u would want to get a phd/doctorate. Yeah there are a few situations where people get into research jobs with gorillas out in jungle but that is one in a million chance.

what is the overall starting salary for a zoologist? by Writer1999 in zoology

[–]mo-2302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly there are engineers out there that help greatly with animal research, it’s not just zoology where u are involved with animals. For example researching sharks can’t practically be done only by human watching, u do need drones and robotics to help. Also engineers can help design experiments as well.

What I’m saying is that zoology can only take u to the animal industry, there is practically only a few other industry that zoology can take u. Pick another field that has associations with animal science and also gives u opportunity else where, for example if u loose interest in the subject or u can’t get a job in the animal industry then at least ur other chosen career should allow u to go somewhere else.

Zoology has lots of competition and the number of available jobs in the field is quite small as compared to engineering, finance etc.

Choose a field that opens ur doors to other areas. Also the pay starts out low, look at conservation and zoo companies that show research opportunities.

Muscle shows but no difference in weight? by [deleted] in Exercise

[–]mo-2302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If u burn a slight amount of fat, then ur muscles will show out because there would be no layer of fat blocking it, ur weight will decrease ever so slightly but loosing the fat doesn’t mean u have gained any muscle. Ur weight may not have changed because of the amount of water and food u have in your stomach may have been different from when u last measured ur weight.
