Is there a way that I can be a wildlife biologist and a vet at the same time?

Yes. You can be a wildlife biologist specializing in the wolf, and become a Wildlife Rehabber. I volunteer at a wildlife rehab center. You can locate a nearby rehab facility and volunteer there or intern there. I am not sure what is involved in getting your rehab license and starting your own facility. Some people have their own facilities with only one person working there. Some of them specialize, in snakes or turtles for instance.Is there a way that I can be a wildlife biologist and a vet at the same time?
Caring for any wild animals requires permits in most states unless you work for a government agency. The best way to achieve your goals would be to get your degree in veterinary medicine but take wildlife courses at the same time. You may need to spend more than the normal 4 years for your degree this way. But it will prepare you to do both. Researchers who study wolves normally would have degrees beyond the 4 year BS degree. Once you get into college your professors in wildlife biology and Veterinary medicine will be better able to guide you on the best courses and the best way to achieve your goals.Is there a way that I can be a wildlife biologist and a vet at the same time?
well... yeah... you need to be a little more specific. do you wish to be a vet for wildlife?





these types of courses take several years, a ton of study, patience and money.





4+ years to become a vet


4+ years for wildlife biology





and at least 2 years getting all the experience you need, which will probably be done through unpaid internships.
I think that you will have to pick one job or the other.
