Well, herpetology is something where you have to be really passionate about the animals because the pay is crap, lol. It takes somebody very dedicated to become a herpetologist. Herpetelogy really needs some good people. A lot of people are just after discovering new species/naming stuff after themselves or their studies are incredibly lacking. People really need to start focusing on the already discovered. Taxonomy is a pain too. But if you are really dedicated to the herps, go for herpetology, money isnt everything and its about what makes you happy.
