The following United States Office Of Personnel Management (USOPM)  pages are linked and are slightly different from one another:

• USAJOBS - United States Office Of Personnel Management  --  The US gov has tons of excellent positions related to life sciences and animals.  When I went to USAJOBS and, as a test, punched up jobs available in APHIS (Animal & Plant Health Inspection Service) in the Department of Agriculture (USDA) I found current openings as Animal Care Inspectors, Animal Health technicans, Biological research assistants ... among others.  In the Fish and Wildlife Dept (Department of the Interior) many biological aids, wildlife management and field research technicians .  Dept of the Interior has similar field positions and biologist positions. (for example, take a quick look at Vacancies )  US Customs Service has a canine training and canine branch for Border Patrol work.   And .... The US Government is an excellent site for student summer employment and internships.
