game keepers
Estate wildlife protectors
Gamekeepers manage wildlife on private estates, primarily in Britain, protecting game birds and fish for hunting and fishing.
They control predators, prevent poaching, and maintain habitats.
The role dates to when wealthy landowners employed staff to ensure plentiful quarry for sport: The gamekeeper caught him setting snares on the estate.
Usually one word: gamekeeper.
