Being fully honest, is this a field worth perusing?

Hello! I am fresh out of high school and intend to go into environmental sciences in university. I love nature and wildlife and would love to pursue a career in the field, maybe a wildlife biologist? Though, reading some of the posts on this subreddit, many people seem to not love it at all. From what I’ve read up, the average wage is around 80k yearly which seems livable, especially if I’m doing something I enjoy. I’m not sure though, I don’t want to go through four years of schooling if I’m just gonna end up miserable and poor. What are y’all’s thoughts on it?
