  It was in bc in canada. It was after I finished school. I went to school for fish and wildlife management and ecological restoration. That was actually our own project we'd gotten some grant money to run for a couple years. All the programming and stuff I know is self taught. I've been learning since I was a kid. It's mostly something I do for fun though. I make small games and little apps for myself and stuff. I'd recommend looking for local parks and stuff with conservation activities going on and volunteer. There's a lot of volunteer work involves in that kind of work because money is scarce, people do it because they care. While I was in school, I volunteered many hours with the conservation group at a local park. Helped them around their office and with their computer stuff, some data analysis and reportinv, as well as on field counts and other things. I led a few teams of other volunteers and we had our own slot with some volunteers for our own study we were doing as a school project with the park. Those kinds of groups are always looking for help though. There's always lots to do, with never enough people or money. I know volunteering may not seem as appealing, but volunteers, especially good ones are usually first in line for job openings when they do eventually appear.
