A Retirement Well Deserved After Nearly 30 years of dedication to Wyoming’s wildlife, Director Brian Nesvik has decided to retire. Brian has been a member of the Wyoming Game Wardens Association since 1995. During his tenure with the association Brian served on the executive board as the vice president in 2006 -2008 and as the president in 2008-2010. In 2007 Brian was voted as the Shikar officer of the year and in 2008 was voted as the Wyoming game wardens association officer of the year. Both very well deserved awards for his dedication to the wildlife resource of Wyoming. The Wyoming wardens association wants to congratulate Brian on a long and very impactful career and thank him for his dedication to Wyoming’s Game wardens, the Wyoming Game Wardens Association and most importantly Wyoming’s wildlife.
August 2024 In August, Saratoga and North Laramie Wardens Levi Wood and Elise Huysman spent 3 days on the water training for their Swiftwater Rescue Technician certifications. During day to day patrol wardens rarely know what situations they may come across. WY Game Wardens take pride in being prepared to help coworkers, other first responders, and the public in dangerous and rapidly evolving situations whether in the water or on dry land.
