Wyoming Game and Fish Department

As Wyoming's state wildlife agency, the Wyoming Game and Fish Department has been managing Wyoming's premier wildlife resources for more than a century. We manage and conserve more than 800 species of wildlife throughout the state, about 100 of which are considered game species that are pursued by hunters and anglers. While the department began primarily to enforce hunting and fishing laws, its role has expanded dramatically. We employ a dedicated, professional staff of more than 400 individuals across the state to help fulfill our mission of conserving wildlife, serving people. Working for the Wyoming Game and Fish Department is a chance to have a fulfilling career surrounded by some of the most talented people in the wildlife and habitat conservation industry. For those in the wildlife business, working in Wyoming means working with some of the continent’s most impressive wildlife and in some of the continent’s most majestic settings. It also means a casual work environment, competitive wages, flexible hours and career advancement opportunities. The Game and Fish is headquartered in Cheyenne, Wyoming, and we have regional offices and positions based in Casper, Cody, Green River, Jackson, Laramie, Lander, Pinedale and Sheridan. Some positions, such as game wardens or hatchery personnel, work in many other communities across the state.
