Carla Wise. Carla Wise, Biologist, Southern Nevada Fish and Wildlife Office, Las Vegas, Nev. Carla says, “As a child, my love of wildlife started by catching frogs and turtles with my dad. I have worked for multiple federal agencies and The Nature Conservancy and have done various surveys for birds, frogs, bats, reptiles, small mammals, and invertebrates. I still can’t believe I got paid to do all of those fun surveys! The best part of my job is feeling like I’m making a difference for wildlife and their habitats.” Photo shows Carla hard at work banding hummingbirds.
