## Resource

Kansas is rolling out its newest K-9 squad—three fresh-faced labs, Maverick, Krew, and Red—set to join game wardens in 2027 after rigorous training, replacing retiring stars Kodak and Kreed. These detection specialists, not bred for aggression, will sniff out poachers, illegal wildlife, and evidence, helping wardens safeguard the state’s natural treasures. Lieutenant Hockett, Warden Brooke, and Warden Watkins—yes, even the rookie—get matched with their pups, turning the state’s wildlife enforcement into a four-legged force.
