Natural scientist

The Natural Science career track is a career that has to do with the study of natural science (biology, ecology, etc). It is found in the "University" expansion pack for The Sims 2. It is only available to graduates of university, so it does not have a Teen/Elder track.

Disturbingly, the career reward that comes with this career is a cow plant that can eat Sims, yielding a drink that makes your Sims younger.

 * Ratkeeper
 * Yes, you tend rats for a living. It's not the greatest job, but at least it gets you started with a career in the biological sciences. The bites don't go too deep and no redness or irritation has started, so chances are you might live to see a promotion if you work on your skills.

 * Algae Hunter
 * Who knows what wondrous treasures lurk in our rivers and streams? The Algae Hunter, that's who! Your job is sample collection, your focus is algae. You don't perform any of the official tests yourself, but at least you have a job that lets you enjoy the great (slimy) outdoors.

 * Clam Wrangler
 * Let's face it: Clams are slippery little bivalves. Sometimes keeping their natural habitats in check requires a little wrangling, and that's where you come in. Long regarded as a jumping ground for the more prestigious careers in Natural Science, Clam Wrangling requires a strong body and quick reflexes. Work those skills and prestige may not be far off.

 * Rogue Botanist
 * No more freelancing for you! You've found yourself a University sponsor, allowing you to do some real research of your own. The organization has deemed you their "Rogue Botanist", a suspicious yet handsomely paying title.

 * Dinosaur Cloner
 * I mean, come on—everybody knows how to make dinosaurs. Find a DNA sample, splice and create a cloning vector, integrate the DNA into bacterial cells to accelerate growth . . . You know, easy stuff. But the real fact of the matter is that nobody has had the guts or a large enough financial endowment before. You've got both.
