Can you get your dog to do tricks? You know—roll over, play dead, make a peanut butter sandwich, stuff like that. If so, you may have a natural ability to get animals to obey you. Animal trainers work with lots of different kinds of animals—from horses to lions to elephants—and are able to get them to perform in things like movies, circus shows, or sporting events. You'd also be a bit of an animal doctor, knowing how to care for them if they were sick or injured. For animal lovers, this is basically a dream job, and it could take you all over the world to do your work. Have you got what it takes? See what your cat has to say about it.
The Details
Working with animals is challenging, but they can provide great entertainment to millions of people—and trainers ensure that the animals stay healthy and are treated humanely.
Some lucky trainers work with animals that can pull off some serious scene-stealing, then they have legitimate celebrity creatures on their hands—like Crystal the capuchin monkey, who got some quality screen time in The Hangover Part II and Night at the Museum.
