I wanted to be a veterinarian but got married instead. Bah Humbug.
I took all kinds of biology, physiology, Oceanography, animal husbandry, agriculture/horticulture classes. Yes, a writer also. I dabble but other than one species list of birds of the western slope of the Sierra Nevada mountain range that was published in a birding digest for CA. no publications.
Now I just want to raise geese, water buffalo, bamboos and opium poppies in Vietnam. Die in blissful obscurity.
