Animal Scientists conduct research concerning domesticated animals to better understand their growth, genetics, and other processes. They are also concerned with the quality and quantity of food supply

They specialize in animal nutrition which means that they research the optimum dietary needs of domestic animals, pets, livestock, poultry animals, animals in rehabilitation facilities, zoo animals, and wild animals

Animal Geneticists analyse the genetic makeup of animals in order to discover which genes cause them to behave in certain ways. Geneticists may also study animal health to determine what causes animals to be immune to specific diseases, or fail to thrive in certain environments

Animal biotechnologists specialize in the study and development of animals’ genomes through molecular biology techniques to improve their suitability for pharmaceutical, agricultural, and industrial applications. They research how can genes of animals can be modified for improved growth rates and more resistance to diseases.

They select and breed animals using their knowledge of genetics and animal science to produce offspring with desired traits and characteristics.

Some animal scientists focus on studying and conserving wildlife populations and their habitats. They may research endangered species, implement conservation programs, and work to mitigate human-wildlife conflicts

Animal behaviorists study and analyze animal behavior to understand their social interactions, communication, and overall well-being. They often work with trainers, shelters, and zoos to address behavioral issues and improve animal welfare.

Livestock managers oversee the day-to-day operations of farms and ranches. They ensure efficient breeding, feeding, and housing of animals, as well as manage financial aspects, such as budgeting, marketing, and product distribution
