Conservation Officers work and patrol in Idaho’s mountains, high deserts and on rivers and lakes protecting Idaho’s fish and wildlife. They travel through country on snow machines, horses, jet boats and 4×4 vehicles. This is not an 8-5 job, but rather one that is flexible; one that allows you to adjust your schedule so you can make your child’s soccer game. Conservation Officers work in country where most people only vacation.
Yes… this is your office.
Conservation Officers primary duty is to enforce fish and game laws and investigate wildlife crime. They work together with biologists to collect biological data for wildlife studies, conduct population studies and trap, tag and transplant wildlife. They work with landowners to minimize and resolve wildlife damage problems.
