Creator Transcript
  • for each province + a few assistants. The chief duties of the game officer are 1. to organize + inform the sportsmen, 2. to give advice to the sportsmen + to headquarters on local game conditions + management matters. 3. To enforce the law - in that order of importance. Many of the large forest concerns are having trouble keeping labor + to encourage them have developed hunting facilities on their holdings. Where such is the case only employees may hunt + private game wardens are hired. The State game officers are usually recruited from these. They are carefully selected + then put through a 10 months schooling session under the tutelage of a senior instructor assisted by a game farm specialist + incidental help from [Professor Gosta] Notini, [Bertil] Haglund etc [etcetera]. The course of study is laid out on a printed circular I have. After completing the school the man takes 2 or 3 years as an Assistant game officer with some senior man. There is virtually no public hunting except of ducks. All hunters must make their own arrangements for access to private land. State forests are zoned + an allotted kill assigned to each zone. There is then bidding for the rights on each zone.
