Game wardens are responsible for issuing and enforcing fishing and hunting licenses. But their duties go far beyond that. Federal conservation officers are also watching out for fraudulent Native arts and crafts. Federal officers work closely with tribal game and fish officials to protect wildlife from poachers and polluters. We explore the roles of tribal and federal game and fish protectors.
Guests:
Logan Pardilla (Penobscot Nation tribal member) – game warden for the Penobscot Nation
Mariano Conley – ranger with the Gila River Police Department
Neil Thagard – director of the Nez Perce Tribe Wildlife Division
