Career Tech: Women in Wildlife Careers & Wildlife Rehabilitators

Washington Wildlife Rehabilitators Association where people can get training to become professional wildlife rehabilitators.

Wildlife rehabilitation is a profession involving the treatment and care of sick, injured and orphaned wild animals with the goal of releasing them back to their natural habitats in the wild. Wildlife rehabilitation is not an attempt to turn wild animals into pets. ...released animals must be able to survive on their own and be an integral part of their species population, i.e., recognize and obtain appropriate foods, select mates of their own species to reproduce, and respond appropriately to potential dangers (people, cars, dogs, natural predators, etc.).

...a biology-related degree provides knowledge essential for quality hands-on animal care; develops an understanding of wildlife as they relate to humans and the environment; and gives you an edge in this increasingly competitive field.

Elective: Career Tech: Digital Photography

One of my photos edited using computer software.

Digital photography is editing photos using computer software. For example you can draw a pair of glasses and a mustache on a photo. There are different ways to edit a photo not just doodling. You can do all kinds of things to them. I'll explain some of them now:

1. Cropping is cutting out all the parts you don't want to see.  
2. Rotating is turning the photo around so it's turned the way you like.
3. Retouch is removing pimples and stuff like that.
4. Red-eye is removing red eyes.
5. Straighten is straightening the photo.
6. Fix is fixing the lighting and stuff like that.
7. Tint is tinting the photo a certain color.
8. Text is typing words on the photo.       

There are Different programs that help you to edit your own photos. Some of  them have to be installed and others you can just access from the internet. I'm going to put some links to a couple photo editing programs.

• Picmonkey 
• Picasa 
• Windows live photo gallery 

 (Picmonkey you can access from the internet and Picasa and Windows live photo gallery you have to install.)
