What do Fishery officers do?

Fishery officers patrol, enforce, and educate. They patrol the coast, rivers, and beaches for any illegal activities like fishing without a permit, overfishing, and ignoring fishing regulations. They also enforce environmental laws like the fisheries act and other regulation. Fishery officers also educate people on regulations and environmental problems so that the world can have a better future. They protect our environment by restoring marine habitats for animals and sea life to thrive in and they prevent pollution from coming into the seas.
