good luck....i persued that field and was sorely disapointed in lack of jobs and the money or lack thereof that goes with it. Prepare to do TONS of volunteer work, part time jobs and internships, more than likely, far far away from home, with something you dont care about like a red footed short tailed tit-mouse or something lol
I agree with TreednNC. When i changed my major, i was torned between wildlife biology and environmental science.Both are lower-paying fields compared tomy former major of environmental engineering, and to make a decent salarywith a wildlife biology degree you will need an advanced degree from a good school. I wish i had someone to tell me thehonest truth when i was changing my major, but luckily i had enough engineering skillsand connections to land a good job.Contemplate about it for awhile, beforeyou make a knee-jerk decision like i did
