The incumbent will focus on removing Argentine black and white tegus from public lands southwest of Florida City and will be responsible for professional representation of the agency and maintaining good working relationships with the public and partners. This region is particularly important for tegu control due to its proximity to nesting sites of imperiled species, such as American crocodiles, least terns, white-crowned pigeons, gopher tortoises, and burrowing owls, and its proximity to Everglades National Park and other sensitive public lands.
Primary duties will include:
* Opening and closing live traps in rural locations on a daily basis, maintaining bait in traps, releasing by-catch from trapping efforts unharmed, safely and humanely removing nonnative wildlife from traps, live trap repair and construction;
* Humanely killing nonnative wildlife using approved methods;
* Collecting, entering, and organizing data on all field activities;
* Quality assurance and quality control of data;
* Maintaining and entering vehicles logs, using a state purchasing card, and submitting purchase receipts.
The position will include driving state vehicles on unpaved roads on public lands and working independently, and requires an ability to solve problems in the field. Knowledge of both native and nonnative reptiles in Florida and experience handling nonnative and potentially dangerous wildlife is preferred.
Additional duties may include:
* Assisting with Early Detection Rapid Response (EDRR) efforts for nonnative fish and wildlife;
* Conducting other activities and tasks as necessary to support other HSC staff in the region.
The incumbent is also responsible for other miscellaneous duties as assigned by the supervisor, Program Coordinator, or Section Leader.
It is expected that all FWC employees courteously assist Commission constituents to resolve questions or problems they may have on matters relating to the Commission, its programs, or fish and wildlife conservation in general; and garner public support for agency objectives and programs by serving Florida's citizens in a positive and proactive manner.
