wildlife conservation society jobs
what are the basic requirements needed for a job in The Wildlife Conservation Society?
as in do you need a degree in zoology etc………….
I worked for them seasonally doing a bird study up in the Arctic in Alaska. Yes, I have a degree in zoology, and you too would need a degree to obtain paid employment.

Hands on experience counts just as much as a degree..I suggest doing volunteer work and/or inthernships to gain skills in this field.
