B.C.’s last wildlife control officer pens new memoir
Some Abbotsford residents may remember a time, in the mid-’90s, when a cougar made its way to apartment complex parking lot near McCallum Road.
While Pemble retired in 2008, he’s just released his aptly titled memoir, The Last Wildlife Control Officer in British Columbia. When the pandemic forced everyone home, and there was so little do, he realized the opportunity had arisen to write that book.With his wife’s help, he combed through his work diaries and brought some of those stories back to life to create the manuscript.
People love animal stories, he said, and his unique perspective of how wild animals are managed has made the book popular. He’s even included photos from his time in the field. His office was based out of his Abbotsford home for 25 years, and then the final five years were out of Cultus Lake.
