CSC Wildlife Club hosts special speaker

The Wildlife Club reached out to Emily Munter, U.S. Fish and WildlifeBiologist, in the Rangeland Complex on Nov. 15, to educate the club about career opportunities in wildlife conservation over Zoom. 

The mission of the US Fish and Wildlife Service is to work with others to conserve, protect and enhance fish, wildlife, plants and their habitats for the continuing benefit of the American people.

Munter’s presentation was delayed by 20 minutes due to technical audio issues. Munter, on the other hand, delivered an informative message to the club.

Munter, a CSC alumni, is a Habitat Restoration Biologist for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in Kenai, Alaska. The North Platte River, which ran through her childhood home, inspired her passion for Fish and Wildlife.

“When an opportunity comes knocking, don’t be afraid to take risks, you might be surprised,” Munter said.

Munter explained how hard work and perseverance will help you land your dream job. Munter, for instance “hugging brown bears.”
