Would zoology or animal sciences be better If i'm interested with working hands-on with animals?

I want to work with animals after college in maybe an animal sanctuary or wildlife reserve and i don't know if I should take the route of zoology or animal sciences. I'm aware that animal sciences is more focused on farm animals but I'd like to work with more wild animals. #zoology #animalsciences

Is the amount of work and school to become a medical student worth it?

I’ve been very interested in the medical field except I do not want to go to school for all my life. Are there any jobs in the medical field that do not require so much school but still make good money? #school #medicine

How can I decide what I specifically want from my major?

For example, my major is going to be biology, but I can't decide whether I want my focus to be genetics, ecology, or environmental sciences. What are any tips to decide which would be best fitted for me? #college-major

I am going into wildlife and conservation biology at URI and I am worried that there wont be that many jobs available to me once I get my degree. I know that there are always jobs for environmentalist majors in general - but maybe my major just isnt practical. #struggle #environmental-science
