The Arizona Game and Fish Department is tasked with the conservation of more than 800 species of wildlife spread out across every acre of the state, but it is also responsible for making sure those who hunt, fish, and recreate outdoors are doing so safely and legally. This is where our law enforcement division steps in, with our dozens of wildlife managers (sometimes referred to as game wardens) patrolling the state on land and on our waterways. Have you ever dreamed of spending the majority of your career in the outdoors, helping conserve wildlife? To tell us more about what a career in wildlife is all about, we are joined by Brian Dietz, a wildlife manager who works out of Region 6 office in Mesa.
