I am miserable at my current job, and while I like my field of study (Health, Safety and Environment) my real passion is anything about animals.
I was planning to become a vet out of high school and did quite a bit of volunteering at a few veterinary hospitals, as well as took a veterinary assistant college program and one year in university relating to biology and math. I started to become depressed while volunteering at the animal hospitals- too much death and ignorant people- and I decided becomming a veterinarian wasn't for me.
I've been working in Health and Safety for about 4 years now, and while it's ok, I just cannot see myself enjoying this career path 20 years down the road. I'm in the process of finding another job, and am seriously considering getting back into the animal side of things (just not at a vet clinic).
I'm wondering what kinds of jobs are available working with animals that pay more than 70,000 per year?
What I enjoy the most are research, parasitology, math, biology, teaching, and working directly with animals.
I'd like to go back to school and get into something that I will enjoy and that will make me excited to go to work each day
.
I know I'll need to go back to school, but need to figure out exactly what I want to do first.
