List of Occupations

In very early episodes, all the characters (excluding Lumpy, Pop, The Mole, and Cro-Marmot) have been depicted as children. But as the series progressed, the age didn't matter, and the characters started to act as teenagers or adults.

Happy Tree Friends mimics the real world in a couple of ways, one of which is the characters have jobs/occupations like in the real world, but, this is also covered by roles, such as Lumpy playing a giant, among other things. What is demonstrated here is the sheer number of jobs in the 100+ episodes of Happy Tree Friends, in which it is also possible to see who gets what types of jobs where it is noticeable.
