Okay so I've always been interested in medicine in general (as in, wanted to pursue a career in it, never panned out), and then wanted to do at least something related to animals - let's say veterinary tech or something simple to start. I can deal with both people and animals incredibly well, and have a huge sense of empathy.
But then I start thinking about how there are obviously going to be specialists out there who work on things like exotic and less-than-common animals, non-domesticated, and I just thought... are there people that work on beavers? Surely there are.
So to sum up my post - how do you get to be a veterinary expert who works with beavers? What are the steps? And can you name your beavers Dagget and Norbert?

Thanks for the info. I don't want to work with beavers specifically, I was mostly curious about how people navigate themselves towards such a specialty.
'roos and wallabies? In the states no less? That's just weird. I didn't even know people had those as pets here.
