In this podcast, I interview Scott about his career as a fisheries biologist, from volunteering to working his way up. How did Scott build his career as a regional fisheries biologist, and what tips does he have for aspiring biologists?

I know that so many of you out there are struggling to get jobs in wildlife biology. I see all of these posts in the wildlife Facebook groups, and when people join my own Facebook group, Getting a Job in Wildlife Biology, I reach out to them and ask them what they’re struggling with. I truly understand how tough it is out there to get a job…

This week’s podcast episode covers the second most popular answer to the question, “What is the problem you are struggling with most in regard to this career?”

I invited my friend and colleague Rebecca Mowry for a conversation about her job as a big game wildlife biologist on my podcast. Rebecca is the Bitterroot area Wildlife Biologist for Montana Fish, Wildlife, and Parks. I’ve been seeing her photos of mountain goats, moose, bighorn sheep and more pop up in my Facebook feed for years now and thought it would be great to have her on the podcast to talk about her journey into wildlife biology.
