Wanting to get into armed anti poaching work.

I did time with the Ukraine armed forces fighting in the east, I left and since leaving I have wanting to start another adventure, before going out I was employed as an ecologist how ever I don't have any qualifications (I worked as a bird spotter and with bats) as I didn't need to do my particular job.

I am currently looking to go into anti poaching, I was wounding if anyone knew as any paths into this as it all seems a bit tricky to get into, I am aware of vetpaws but they seem quite hard to get an open position.

thank you

Reporting hunter who stated an intention to violate hunting regulations / wildlife protections?

I live in western Oregon and spend a fair amount of time on public forest roads. This weekend I ran into a hunter who specifically stated he was hunting for a sow with cubs that he had spotted in the area previously.

I asked, "So, the cubs are pretty big, then?" and he pointed to my 40-lb Border Collie and said "Little smaller than your dog."

This is what the ODFW bear hunting regs state:

Bag Limit: One black bear per tag, except that it is unlawful to take cubs less than one year old or sows with cubs less than one year old.

Is this someone/something I can report?

Will a wildlife agency do anything about it?

I have the hunter's full name, plate number, and address.

Obviously no actual crime has been committed yet, but I'm wondering if this person deserves a visit from law enforcement for a refresher on their responsibilities/obligations as a hunter? And there's a good chance that this person will commit the crime, since that's their stated intention, but I don't imagine it could be proven after the fact. We have some mandatory and optional reporting involved, but none of it would provide data about the cubs' age as far as I know.
