This book consists of 36 short stories that reflect some of the
real life experiences of a Wisconsin Game Warden over a 31 year
career. The stories allow the reader to experience the wide range
of emotions the conservation warden feels as he encounters
situations in the outdoors ranging from laughter to tragedy. The
reader will have the opportunity to learn what it is like to pursue
a vehicle driven by deer poachers, to face armed robbers, or to
ride the waves in a patrol boat responding to an emergency call.
These true stories cover a wide range of subjects. Chapters of the
book include the investigation of trout fishing violations, forest
fires, waterfowl hunting, commercial fishing, deer poachers,
serious pollution events, and the intoxicated operation of boats.
The author also describes the difficult task of investigating the
deaths of outdoor users who lose their lives in hunting and
recreational vehicle accidents. Historical chapters are also
included such as the role wardens played as peacekeepers during the
volatile protests over the exercise of treaty rights in northern
Wisconsin in the late 1980's. A warden's role in search and
recovery operations is also discussed.
