A great choice by IDFG Commissioners. 

Ed is an outstanding leader and will serve the State well as the next Director.  I've known him for many years - his common sense approach will continue to yield great results for hunters and anglers in Idaho.

  can he teach ours the necessity of “managing “ our predators on land and in the water

Hopefully he finds a way to hire more game officers, and he’s anti predator!

We need to help them get together, could be a plus for Washington and Idaho.  Bunch of shared habitat, wet and dry.

I like his comments about taking the position:

“I am very proud to have been appointed by the commission to serve as director,” Schriever said. “I am humbled to serve Idaho, lead Department of Fish and Game, and ensure the traditional values associated with people’s ability to interact with their wildlife are professionally managed and sustained. Idaho is one of the last best places in the world. Our legacy of fishing, hunting, trapping and wildlife-based recreation is inseparable with Idaho’s outdoor heritage, culture and quality of life. Your Fish and Game department exists to provide these benefits in perpetuity.”
