slept, elevator, and Game Wardens
2002-9-16 � 5:49 p.m.

chaos chaos

make a joyful noise.

so today i slept instead of reading so now i have to read.

in the elevator in my dorm there is a very old sign that says "elavator certificate posted in the pysical plant" the pysical plant is very far away and it would take about oh say 30-35 minutes to walk there oh and it is now named the Facilities Management buidling so you might get lost if you did not research it. now this elevator moves very slowly and plan to add on five minutes if you want to use it. it is painted insane asylum powder blue. i think i will stop taking it b/c it might get stuck and it seems like an un-nessecary risk.

now my scary friend john from mameco wants to be a game warden. so i looked into what this encompasses:

What Does a Wildlife Enforcement Officer Do?

Contrary to popular belief, wildlife enforcement officers are not biologists, and while they occasionally perform educational duties, they do not work with animals in habitat management, research or similar biological roles. Instead, the basic work is law enforcement, and there are risks because possible violators are almost always armed, especially during hunting season. Officers can also expect to work many nights, and most weekends and holidays, often under adverse weather conditions. It can be hard on family life, and requires intelligence, courage, a positive mental attitude and physical strength and endurance.

this is the best job descripiton i could find. now there is the International Game Warden Magazine which includes:

Our content is specific to the work and interests of conservation enforcement. Regular columns include:

* firearms training

* communication

* park patrol

* game warden book reviews

* a patch exchange

* a comprehensive digest of case investigations

* work outside North America

In response to our readers asking to see more photographs of other Wardens, we initiated "Look Who's Reading IGW." We feature a different collage of officers from around the world on each back cover.

Longer features address topics such as

* dangerous animal or poacher situations

* forensics

* professional commentaries

* officer assaults

* animal/human conflicts and trends

* a history of the profession

Each issue we publish detailed stories of big cases and busts - both to acknowledge officers' good work and serve as a training reference for other wardens and rangers.

i got this info from here and for more info about this magazine please visit
