Subsistence hunter/fisherman of the week. Albert Nelson
He was Wyoming's first game warden, hired in.1899.
While contrary to what is sometimes suggested, he occasionally had deputy game wardens in his three-year stint, his statewide, hands on, role was a monumental task. He received funding at the amount of $1,200 per year, from which he had to pay himself and deputies who received $3.00 per day.
