What does a warden do?

Asked by Wiki User

A game warden rescues animals and they arrest people. =^..^=


If working for the Wildlife Division, they are assigned a WMA that they manage. Management duties include but are not limited to planting food plots, patrolling campsites for violators, maintaining roads throughout the WMA and working hunts on the WMA. Also tagging bear, deer, checking hunting and fishing license, when on call answer pages about complaints dealing with bear, deer, and other wildlife animals. For the record just because you see a bear walk across your backyard a game warden will not come out to your property to trap the bear. If the bear is a nuisance, damaging property then a warden will come out and assess the area to make sure that the person complaining is not attracting the bear with food, pet food or bird seeds. If you are leaving these things out and attracting wildlife and you don't correct the issue tickets can be written which is another duty of a game warden.

How Stanley feel after the day in camp green lake?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

At first, Stanley was pretty excited. He never had the opportunity to go to camp as a child, and thought it might be kind of neat. However, his enthusiasm vanished pretty quickly. Right off the bat, when he arrived at the camp, he noticed the lack of anything green and the aforementioned lake was nowhere to be found, and things only got worse from there.
