CAP Conservation Officer of the Year

Idaho Fish and Game Senior Conservation Officer Meghan Roos was named the Citizens Against Poaching (CAP) Conservation Officer of the Year. She wasn't given the award for just one big case, but for consistently working hard and getting results. "Her success is based on her extreme motivation to do the work, completing all tasks without complaint, ability to prioritize her work, and for her deep appreciation and care for the natural resources in Idaho," said her supervisor Mike Stoddard, district conservation officer. "She is dependable, and is always available for assistance. She has an extremely good work ethic, positive attitude, and she gets the work done." Roos was raised in Challis. She received her bachelor of science in fisheries and wildlife from Oregon State University in 2006. She has been stationed in the Buhl area for the past five years. Her patrol area goes from the Snake River to the Nevada border, but you may see her working many other areas in the Magic Valley.
