It combines biology and zoology to find paranormal animals. This job is based on the scientific approach and data we have on the existing species. You'll get to work with historical information and archives, as well as current witness testimonials.

This is a thrilling opportunity to investigate the possible seeing of unknown creatures. With a critical approach, one can find a scientific explanation to these mysteries or, on the contrary, prove that there is no such answer yet.

Parapsychology

Those who are interested both in the supernatural and human psyche should consider studying parapsychology. It is a cross-disciplinary field that combines psychology and neuroscience. Professionals focus on understanding various mental phenomena and beliefs people have.

You'll work directly with people that have experienced abnormal. You'll conduct various evaluations and tests to figure out where those beliefs or memories might come from. Is there a psychological explanation or not? Each case is different.

For example, Loyd Auerbach is a parapsychology professor that teaches a course at Atlantic University. He has written several books on the matter and appeared in numerous TV and radio shows.
