Volunteer
at your local
Fishery Office
Volunteering
can be a wonderful experience. It may be a chance to work with species
of fish that are rarely seen or are unique and special. It is also a
great opportunity to gain experience if you are considering an education
in fisheries or conservation. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service provides
volunteer opportunities at National Fish Hatcheries, Fish Health Centers,
Biological Stations, and Fishery Resources Offices. Your help will be
appreciated.
