Unhappy Working in Conservation

Hey all
I`m confused as to what to do.I really want to work in conservation.It`s in my heart and my blood, and when i`m doing that type of work, there`s no stopping me and it`s when i`m most happy,(i could win 100k on deal or no deal and i`d still be happier doing conservation work).
I love the outdoors, and all animals,and the trees etc.
I`ve always wanted to do this type of work i first started when i was 16 but things got in the way.But now i`m more passionate about it then ever.
But i don`t know which way to go, i`m young 18 i`m 19 in april, i`m at college studying maths english ict and it, and what i intend to do, is to do the higher maths english and ict course after.The one i`m currently doing is equiviliant to grade C in GCSE or so they`ve told me.And then after that i was thinking of doing a university course,and this is where my problem comes in, i don`t know wether to or not.I mean i don`t know wether i`d be wasting my time studying for 3 yrs or 4yrs total,because i could just do all that and not get a job out of it.And from what i`ve been reading on some off these posts it`s pretty hard to get a job in conservation.

Please help or advise.

Cheers

Carl.
