    I know a man who takes pictures of nature (not necessarily animals) whenever he gets the chance. He sells them to magazine companies and makes really good money doing it. He's also entered them in numerous contests over the years.

    When I read this question, I automatically though of him. It sounds like it would be a good thing for you to do!

    But be careful. You might want to get a stable career and do something such as this on the side. You could always start your own business, but if the business doesn't succeed, you need something to fall back on.

    Don't limit yourself, there are always other possibilities and other options.

    Research your options, as I can see you have already started doing, and make sure you know the benefits of everything.

    I'm sure you'll find something that suits you.

    Best of luck to you!

    You can read my latest question, which I just asked a few moments ago. You may have a suggestion for me.

    Good luck! Don't give up on your dream.

    Having a background in veteranry science is a good way to get your foot in the door for working with animals.. You could pursue zoology but that work tends more towards generating reports from field investigations than actually working with animals.
