I'm Freshman in high school and i love photography, i have a Nikon D5200 right now. I really want to do Wildlife Photography when i get older. I was wondering where the best college for this is and what i should do to prepare for it? Should i get some sort of degree in Zoology maybe?

You are going to have to start with a lens like the 50-300 mm to start practicing shooting wildlife from down wind from the animals

While you are honing your skills, learn how to track wildlife and how to build simple blinds few hundred feet from the grazing areas of the animals.

By the time you have your degree in Zoology, you hopefully will have been able to save your pennies long enough to buy a nice 300 mm f/2.8 lens so you can shoot at dawn and dusk, when the animals are most active
