Depends on what you're interested in doing at the SD zoo. These days a lot of zookeepers don't have degrees in zoology or biology, but rather in behavioral sciences. You should take some time to look at job postings on the aza website to get an idea of what sorts of experience and education would make you an ideal addition to the SD zoo team. Also, consider specialized zoo-related training, such as the Exotic Animal Training and Management Program (EATM) at Moorepark. It's only an associates degree, but it's good experience.

Most zoos don't have zoologist. Zoology is not the study of zoos. Some zoos are actually zoological gardens or research areas. They are associated with a major university. You will find college students working on advanced degrees or vet students. You really want to find out the educational background of people working at a zoo, you have to go to a zoo web page and read their bibliography.http://www.stlzoo.org/pressroom/zoostaffinterests.htm
