What is the best path to take to become a fish and game warden?
Hello I just took a Career Interest Quiz on My Future AZ, and I got Fish and Game Warden. Then after looking into the job I realized that I’m actually interested in making it my future full time job, because I like working outdoors and the idea seems fun! Do any of you know how I become a fish and game warden, what degree should I get, are there any apprenticeship programs that I can apply for, or is there anything else that would help me to know about the career before eventually applying for it? As a follow up question, my understanding of the job is that I would be in a national park or ranch, and watching for illegal poachers and keep the environment safe and clean, is there anything really big about the job that I missed? I would love to get the job eventually, I love the outdoors, and am an aspiring Eagle Scout (I’m first class right now), so please give feedback!
