Your Vocation As A Game Warden

By Bill Duggen


As a game warden you are in charge to save the nature from human. Local laws and regulations are embodied by the game warden at the time of fishing and hunting and it is helpful to conserve ecosystem.

Your working place is out of door

The positions of many game warden are highly independent but when you are a junior warden, you are bound to work anywhere. As a warden you are compelled to work in an adverse condition.

What is your duties

As a game warden at first you have to enforce the boating, hunting and fishing laws. As a warden your working area is vast. It includes rivers, lakes, mountains, beaches, and deserts and other recreational area.

What are the requirements for becoming a game warden

Specific state requires specific skills for becoming the game warden, but more or less the thing rules are similar. Without some exception like Texas most of the state requires the applicants to be at least 21 for this job. Having a graduate degree in a relevant subject is a plus point for you in all states. Biology, Wildlife Management, or Criminal Justice is some example of some relevant subjects.

For being a successful game warden you should have an affinity to work out of the door and it is desired to be familiar with wildlife. As a game warden you should know how to operate the terrain vehicles. Sometimes you are compelled to remain outside for several days.

You should have a good knowledge of local laws and regulations

I suggest you to read the wildlife related laws again and again so that, you can understand them. You need to know this before applying. You will be benefited from this during academic testing.

Get updates on registration time

Mostly, you can apply once or two times in a year in every state. It is your responsibility to complete all of your apply process when your state opens the apply window.

Take some physical training

You have to take physical test prior to being admitted. The test requirements vary state wise. For instance, sit-ups, timed push-ups, and mile runs are taken as physical tests. You might have to face swimming test in some state.

You must need an academic training

You must need an academic training for starting. You need about (7-8) months to complete the training.

Achieve your cadetship

When the academy will give you graduation degree, you will be placed under a senior officer in training. The training will continue for 6 months. Then you have to go into your working place.
