It turns out there are many paths to a career in waterfowl and wetlands conservation. On this episode, we learn about Wes Prebeck’s transition from a 20+ year career in law enforcement to now slogging through swamps and marshes in support of the Wetlands Reserve Easement program. Part of this path, inspired by a love of duck hunting, is Wes’s education through Oregon State University and a Masters research project on factors influencing mallard harvest in the Mississippi Flyway.
