ehhh, I was gonna guess probably furry conventions or perhaps more optimistically a lucrative career in shitposty webcomics (think oglaf), but sure lets shoot for the moon.

I hear furry art is lucrative.

so is making regular pornography, only with regular porn you're unlikely to require a working knowledge of animal genitalia, so it's actually better. having said that, I think the world would just plain be better off with another oglaf or cyanide & happiness, don't you?

TBF sometimes you just learn about animal genitalia, no matter what your field. For example, I acquired a working knowledge of snake hemipenises as assistant archivist of a herpetology collection. They didn't warn me about that in library school.

Is there a derpetology?

Oglaf is God tier art how dare you.
