Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteers play a vital role in much of the work accomplished by the Columbia Fishery Resources Office. Throughout the country volunteers support the Fish and Wildlife Service by donating thousands of hours in various activities that benefit natural resources in numerous ways. Volunteers have donated hundreds of hours to assist Columbia FRO in netting Endangered pallid sturgeon and river fishes monitoring. Volunteers are welcome to join fishery staff for day long trips to the field where they will collect, tag, and measure fish, and assess fish habitat quality. Volunteers are also welcome in the lab to aid in the identification of collected fishes and assist in analysis of field data. Volunteers are also needed with skills outside of the traditional fish biology. Individuals skilled in computers, construction, journalism, photography, statistics, teaching or other disciplines are welcome and needed. A volunteer created this website!
