Hello Epickoal123
I'm glad you have asked people about your possible degree. I did a Zoology degree in the 1970s and after getting my BSc, I found out it was the third worst degree to help get a job (the only worse degrees for this were Botany and Philosophy. I think you should choose whether you want to take a chance on getting a job using a Zoology degree or try to get a job through another route. I have known several people who have done volunteer work at London Zoo. Some have got paid jobs after being volunteer keepers.This route would enable you to get relevant training and give you more chance of a job, as you'd be more likely to prove that you were capable of doing the work. One of the big problems with a degree is that many of them provide academic, rather than practical skills.
I found that many employers were not interested in my degree. One organisation said it was only interested in science and arts graduates. It is possible for you to get an interesting career.Mark Carwardine was in the year below me and worked for WWF and later became an author, tour guide and radio presenter before appearing in 'Last Chance to See' with Stephen Fry. Other graduates sold insurance, became nurses and did other jobs with little, if any, link with zoology.
I suggest that you get some voluntary work with a zoo or museum and perhaps look for a degree that employers are looking for,rather than one with a remote chance of employment. I remember one woman who had a low paid job and lived with a family because she couldn't afford to rent or buy anywhere of her own. She used her savings to go on wildlife-based holidays and this may be another option for you.
Good luck.
That is a common joke used for any profession. When I was in uni, we often used that joke for the physicists.
