What Does an Animal Scientist Do?
Animal scientists strive to create better ways of processing meats. They are responsible for looking after meat, poultry, eggs, and dairy products. Animal scientists can specialize in a specific niche of the animal science field. They can focus on dairy, poultry, animal breeding, and other specialties. Dairy scientists work in milk production and develop methods of improving the quality of milk as well as improving the means of gathering it. They may research how to safely encourage dairy cows to produce more milk as well as the best way to keep it safe until consumption. Poultry scientists work with animals like chickens, ducks, and geese and develop ways of ensuring that they are kept in a sanitary and healthy condition. Meat scientists have the same duties as poultry scientists, except they deal with livestock instead of chickens. Some animal scientists research methods of how to reduce waste buildup, improve waste disposal, and reduce animal deaths in animal housing facilities. Ani
