Captive animals don’t have a choice about living in a zoo, game reserve or other controlled setting – and that’s why it’s so important that there are people to be a voice for them. To care for animals and to give them the best lives possible, we need to understand what they think and feel. Understanding their behaviour, learning about positive welfare inputs and making decisions to support their welfare are all fundamental skills – and you will learn this through the Foundation Degree Zoo Management. With a growing national and global interest in exotic species, plus increasing recognition of the role animals play in the environment, there are real opportunities for people with zoo management skills to make a positive impact on the world.
