I need wildlife career advice badly!

[Adam Prosser]

hello everyone, Basically I need some advice, I am currently going through a bad time in my life in terms of career's, I am 25 and I have studied graphic design and multimedia, within these courses there were photography units and have developed a love of photography and I love nothing more than exploring with my camera and the excitement of finding an animal in some remote location and getting amazing shots.

(Graphic design was not all its cracked up to be in my opinion)

Anyway Im thinking of doing a wildlife course and uni but dont know if its worth it or whether I need to. I have a fairly decent portfolio but don't know if I really know enough about photography or whether I'm too old to go doing 3 year courses.

Does anyone know of a course which has worked out for them or any 1 or 2 year courses? .
What is it like going freelance?

I uploaded a couple of photographs on my profile if anyone leaves feedback it would be much appreciated.
