So did you choose your profession before or after you realized that you'd essentially be a puppet?


The vast majority of people I serve are reasonable, and very little of my time is spent on things irrelevant to conservation or hunting opportunity. The same is true for the LDWF people dealing with this particular box-turtle issue.

I'm not as idealistic now as when I chose this profession in 1983. I've finally accepted that even if I do my job as objectively, responsibly, and competently as possible, I still have bosses that may not follow my recommendations and may direct me to do something different. But even in a Louisiana state agency, that has been rare.
