Ethan Beale, of Fenelton, Butler County, has been named game warden for eastern Venango County, Northwest Region Director Richard T. Cramer announced in a news release from the Pennsylvania Game Commission.
“I grew up with a state games land as my back yard; so I developed a deep-rooted love of hunting and trapping,” said Beale, of Emlenton, who graduated from the Ross Leffler School of Conservation on Feb. 23.
Beale is also a graduate of Karns City High School.
Game wardens are responsible for administering a wide variety of agency programs within an assigned district of about 350 square miles.
Primary duties include law enforcement, responding to wildlife conflicts, conservation education and administration of the hunter-trapper education program. Wardens also are responsible for supervising and training part-time deputy game wardens.
