Even then, they got most of their specimens by going to where they lived and letting it be known that they would pay for any of these animals in good condition. Today, there is much less collecting of wild animals except for people like commercial fishermen. What you can do is go for advanced degrees and hope to attract grants that will allow you to do your own research in the field or collect for museums. I have managed to get projects determining environmental impact of proposed actions and do most of my work outside, in all sorts of weather. I like to joke that I get paid for playing in the mud.<a href="http://www.resumeminers.com/universities/religious-degree.htm"> oikos</a> A half-century ago, there were still peoples who could make a living collecting for zoos.
