Maine's fish and game wardens have grown from seven part time deputies earning 25 to 75 dollars a year to 134 full time professionals with training and specialists such as pilots and divers. The Warden Service operates on about 1.4 million dollars funded mainly by licenses and fines, uses radios and snowmobiles, enforces fishing and hunting laws along with boating litter and snowmobile rules, maintains inland waterways, searches for lost hikers, and staffs 100 districts including remote woods posts. Chief Warden Maynard F.
