One does not need a biology degree to be a commissioner. The agency has biologists that are hired by the commissioners. MOst of the commissioners have not had them. Unfortunately some of the wrong commissioners had a hand in selecting some of our current biologists.

On the other hand, I do not think that such extreme enviromental views and a track record of pushing for very nonfriendly to hunter agendas and voting against those she was supposed to represent should even be considered for the chair. Seeing as who has majority in the governors advisory council, I would not doubt she will get on.

I know this womans recent history in regards to enviromentalism, hunting[8D], and even a bit personally. Very friendly. But not in our hunters best interest by a long shot. Unfortunately much of what was said about her extreme views on conservation were right on the nose.
