About Abbie Heimowitz

I joined Wildhub to connect with other conservationists with similar and new passions so I can learn  and network!

I hold my BSc degree in Biology and Zoology and am looking to gain my MSc in Conservation medicine! I love working on zoonotic diseases and wild felids/carnivores the most as well  as  explore new countries.

I have done zoonotic disease work in Badlands South Dakota and also interned with GVI in South Africa and Madagascar. Volunteer work includes  Kathmandu Central Zoo in Nepal.

What is one lesson you’ve learned so far about entering this field that you wish you had known earlier?

That one is tough haha.  I have to say one lesson I have learned is that experience and passion matter. I would not have gotten my seasonal job in  2024 if my interest  and passion didn't show through.
