Do you want to be involved in a job that makes a huge difference to our environment and our nation's natural resources? You should go into wildlife and forestry conservation. America has beautiful forests. Their careful management is important to the environment and ecology of our nation. Forest conservation workers work to maintain, develop, and take care of the forests of our country. They plant new tree, fight insects and diseases that kill trees, and help to watch for and control things that impact forests like soil erosion. They can also help to maintain roads and campsites located in forests. They may also work to remove diseased trees. They may also treat trees with insecticides and fungicides to protect them from disease. Some forest and conservation workers are actually employed in forest nurseries and tree farms helping new trees to grow to replenish forests.
