Zoology is an Exciting Field of Study!

Zoology makes a huge impact on our world through the scientific study of the evolution, anatomy, physiology, behavior, habitats, and health of animals and humans.  It includes diverse approaches such as electron microscopy, molecular genetics, human genetics, biochemistry and field ecology. By studying animals we develop a better understanding of how we, ourselves, function and interact with the world around us.
