Besides working in a zoo, what kinds of things can you do with a degree in Zoology or Wildlife Management?

You could definitely get some fieldwork type jobs. I myself have a degree in Wildlife Ecology and have done some amazing internships working with the USFWS Condor Recovery Program and the Threatened/Endangered Species program on Fire Island with the Park Service. In fact, I'm leaving in a week for Canada to work with the E. Loggerhead Shrike recovery program. Anyway, other people I've worked with have had similar type backgrounds, ranging from veterinary science to biology to even geography. I would think that pretty much any job you can get with zoology, you could get with wildlife management. The key lies in your experience and enthusiasm.
