ND Fed Warden Jobs

I looked up the pay scale for these positions. They vary by location but an entry level GL-5 appears to start in the low $40K/year. Not much higher than a Walmart employee. Agencies are struggling to fill "game warden" type jobs across the U.S. because the pay is not competitive. The jobs may appear to be "fun" on the surface, but I assure you (I'm a retired F/W biologist and carried a commission for 20 years in Alaska), you earn whatever they pay.

yup, A lot of states actually pay better than the USFWS especially after COVID. Entry level can be a rough couple years but if you can hold out for a few years they top out at the GS-11 level.
