Careers: Veterinarian for Kids | Learn about the job of a veterinarian

What is a veterinarian? In Careers: Veterinarian for Kids, you'll learn that veterinarians are animal doctors who care for pets, farm animals, zoo animals, and even wild animals. They help keep animals healthy and treat them when they're sick or hurt. Vets work in places like animal hospitals, zoos, and even government offices. Some also work in labs to study animal diseases, and others ensure food safety and animal welfare for the government. If you love animals and want to make a difference in their lives, becoming a veterinarian could be the perfect job.

To become a vet, you must undergo rigorous academic training and practical experience. After high school, veterinarians pursue a bachelor's degree in a science-related field such as biology, chemistry, or animal science. Following undergraduate studies, admission to a doctor of veterinary medicine (DVM) program requires four additional years of education. After that, veterinarians may pursue internships or residencies to gain specialized experience in fields like surgery, internal medicine, or veterinary research training.

If you love animals and want to spend your days making sure they're healthy, happy, and safe, becoming a veterinarian is a great way to do that. Whether working in a clinic, a zoo, or a research lab, being a vet is a fun and fulfilling career that allows you to make a real difference in the world.
