Read this list of violations to avoid common mistakes when hunting, fishing or trapping.
Field Operations
The life of a game warden is a 24-hour-a-day job, a full-time responsibility, and a very rewarding job.
Part of the job's attraction is never quite knowing what the day will hold-whether trapping bears, darting and transplanting moose, flying in a helipcopter to count bighorn sheep, getting a deer out of a resident's backyard, hazing 1,000 elk out of a rancher's field, talking to hunters, or catching poachers. They are wildlife biologists, wildlife law enforcement officers, wildlife educators, problem solvers, and ambassadors to landowners, hunters, anglers and communities throughout Wyoming. Wardens are considered the local "expert" when constituents want to find out what's going on with their wildlife and their department.

Wildlife Management/Data Collection & Analysis
Game wardens collect/summarize wildlife data from the ground and air to determine distribution, abundance, recruitment, hunter harvest, and mortality causes of wildlife. They also work with wildlife biologists and neighboring game wardens on hunting season strategies, recommendations, and sample wildlife for research and disease surveillance.
Enforcement of Game and Fish Laws and Regulations
Game wardens enforce/check compliance with hunting, fishing, trapping, watercraft statutes and regulations, littering and state land camping, open fires, and closed/off-road travel restrictions. They also write enforcement reports, attend court, work with other agencies, conduct investigations, collect intelligence, and carry and maintain law enforcement weapons and gear.

Injured and Nuisance Wildlife
Game wardens respond to and appropriately handle injured and nuisance wildlife calls which may require euthanization of wildlife. They also utilize immobilization or lethal techniques based on an evaluation of circumstances.
Watercraft Safety
Game wardens conduct watercraft safety and registration inspections along with HIN, VIN, and AIS inspections. They also enforce/check compliance with watercraft statutes and regulations and educate the public regarding safety.
