In addition to classes at the academy, Manteuffel attended lectures at Moscow University, and went on nature expeditions to Central Asia and Central Russia. After graduating with honors in 1910, he became an agronomist and soil scientist. Soon he was called for military service, and in 1914 he was mobilized to the war front; the First World War and the Russian Civil War forced him to interrupt his scientific activities for many years.

Manteuffel was a crucial figure behind the formation of the famous , or the Circle of Young Biologists of the Zoo, proving himself to be a popular and talented teacher. The pupils called him Uncle; many future scientists, zoologists and naturalists came out of this youth program, among them , , , Vera Chaplina, , , , the brothers and , , Yuri Isakov, , , and others. A key achievement of Manteuffel and his students was the successful breeding of sable in captivity in 1928–29. In 1934–1937, he wrote regularly for Izvestia. At the end of 1937, Manteuffel was forced to leave the zoo after an unsuccessful attempt by a group of workers to remove the new director, L. V. Ostrovsky. After the Second World War, Manteuffel was deputy director for scientific work at the All-Union Scientific Research Institute of Hunting (VNIO) from 1948 to 1955.
