We were sent these questions by a high school student, Eldon, who was asking about an entomology career. If someone could respond to them, that would be great :)

Thank you in advance!
Emilia :)

Subject: Questions about Entomology

Hello,
My name is Eldon, and I'm in 11th grade. I am doing a project about a career I want to follow, and I chose Entomology. Insects have always interested me and I think it would be awesome to study them for a living.
I have a few questions, if you wouldn't mind answering:
1. Do you travel much to study insects?
2. How often are new insects discovered?
3. What different careers are available in Entomology?
4. What is the typical work environment?
5. This one is more opinionative: What is the most desirable job as an Entomologist?
6. What language skills would one have to use daily in the workspace?
Thank you!
