wildlife biologists

Fauna field scientists

Wildlife biologists are scientists who study wild animals and their ecosystems—their behavior, populations, habitats, and relationships with other species.

The work ranges from tracking endangered species to managing game populations to assessing environmental impacts: Wildlife biologists tagged the wolves to monitor their migration patterns.

The field combines fieldwork with laboratory analysis and policy recommendations.
