Your stats are not favorable for admission for UF (average GPA of Freshman class was 4.3) but there is a great option! Santa Fe Community College in Gainesville offers an AA degree in Zoology (there is even a zoo!) and the Florida university system throughout the state offers a direct admission path to UF with an AA and 60 hours of credit. SF and UF work in cooperation on these programs and make the transition successful. Two years at SF wound be much more affordable as well.
