Back when I was interested in learning more about animal behavior and possibly getting into as a career, I looked in vain for an animal behavior-focused Master’s program. Eventually, I gave up and found another path into animal behavior. Well y’all, let us tell you – Dr. Erica Feuerbacher has built the program we all wished we had when were were just starting out.

All we can say is that it sounds incredible and worthwhile. The program has academic groundings so that people engaging in animal behavior work have a better understanding of why a behavior is occurring and how to use that “why” to reduce or increase target behaviors. Even better, the course is all virtual and asynchronous, meaning that people who already have active professions or have geographical/financial barriers don’t need to uproot themselves. Seriously, if this would have existed when I was looking for a way into the field, I absolutely would have taken it. Partially because it is top-notch, and also partially because I never want to leave the great state that is Wisconsin. 🙂

We’ll let Dr. Feuerbacher tell you all about it in this podcast.
