What Is a Conservation Ranger?

A Conservation Ranger (more commonly known as a Game Warden) is a peace officer certified by the Georgia Peace Officer Standards and Training Council and is employed by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources.  A Conservation Ranger enforces wildlife, environmental, boating, and other State and Federal laws, rules, and regulations in assigned areas.

Patrols are made by vehicle, boat, aircraft, ATV and on foot.  Conservation Rangers conduct hunter and boater education classes and informative presentations for interested groups concerning hunting, fishing, boating, anti-littering, and environmental laws.
