Is poaching a problem where you work? If so, what do you do to counter it?
How's the pay? I'm guessing its shit, but is it below poverty line shit, or halfway decent living shit?
Poaching is a problem where I work, but with some nuances. As I mentioned in another comment, the country I live in is mired in an internal civil conflict, so guerrillas are stationed in protected areas of nature reserves and also in jungle areas where there is no state control. In the case of the place where I work, there is a guerrilla group operating nearby. Therefore, not many people come to hunt in these places for fear of being kidnapped. However, from time to time, a hunter comes. I can't do anything about that except report it to the authorities. In fact, I once tried to take action on my own and ended up beaten and abused. I don't regret anything. I hate that they hurt animals that are also in danger of extinction in this place.
As for pay, this is a third-world country. So, what you might get at my job in the United States is much more miserable here. However, that's why I have another completely remote job, where I can work from home. It's how I pay my bills.
