BIOLOGIST BIOLOGIST There are several different professional classes of biologists, including wildlife, botany, general and marine/fisheries. There are several different professional classes of biologists, including wildlife, botany, general and marine/fisheries. Wildlife and Botany Biologists do a variety of basic biological work in connection with wildlife management field activities, wildlife research, or environmental protection studies. For example, they might be out in the wilderness, observing and recording the biological and environmental factors which affect wildlife. Wildlife biologists also band and tag game birds or other wildlife. They make surveys to determine how much forage is available for the animals to eat. Biologists collect specimens for laboratory study or make a laboratory analysis of the specimens. Both wildlife and botany biologists prepare plans for developing and managing wildlife and plant habitat and help explain to the public why and how we manage wildlife and plants.

Marine/Fisheries Biologists do a wide variety of basic biological work in connection with marine or fishery research, management, and water quality studies. For example, biologists collect data in the field, including samples, of marine, fresh water or anadromous fish, and other aquatic organisms. They determine fish population levels by surveying streams, rivers, and lakes. Biologists capture and tag various fish species for examination of laboratory analysis. They study land and water projects such as highways, dams, diversions, and stream and lake alterations to determine the effects on fish and wildlife populations. They also compile and evaluate research data and prepare technical reports.
