Government is recognizing the passing of Earl B. Pilgrim for his contributions to wildlife conservation, forestry management, and resource enforcement over the course of his colourful, fascinating life.

Earl returned to Roddickton in 1965 to work in the lumber industry, eventually training to become a forestry technician. In 1968, he joined the Newfoundland Forest Service as a forestry ranger before settling into a career as a wildlife officer and is NL’s first to receive the Shakar Safari International Award in 1978. While raising his family on the Northern Peninsula, Earl served his community well, volunteering on town councils and regional development associations.
