Environments vary for animal behaviorists depending on the specific jobs they hold. Those working in zoos, shelters, sanctuaries, and so on, work both outdoors and indoors conducting research and monitoring behavior of animals. Depending on the specific situation, there may be unpleasant odors.
Animal behaviorists employed in academic settings such as colleges and universities work indoors in pleasant, clean, well-lit environments. Those working in research may work in labs or similar facilities or may be out in the field.
Individuals working as applied animal behaviorists may work indoors and outdoors depending on the specific employment situation. As they may be dealing with animals who have behavior problems, individuals may on occasion get bitten.
