Tell the interviewer about your passion for this career, what motivates you to be the best in your field, and what you look forward to the most in this position.
Review the job posting before your interview to familiarize yourself with the duties involved, and mention one or many duties that you look the most forward to (related to your motivation), and why. This will show the interviewer that you are passionate about your work and that you also did your due diligence before your interview.

What motivates me the most in my career as a wildlife officer is to make an impact by preserving rare species such as the Florida Keys mole skink and the Florida pine snake, both state-threatened. I am extremely passionate about this career and look forward to becoming the best version of myself. I'd love to protect our land and environment for future generations to enjoy.

Very heartfelt response! I have reworded it slightly to help with flow, and omitted the second sentence as it didn't seem to add anything to the overall impact.

I am motivated to protect and preserve what makes Florida, Florida. I always strive to push myself to achieve goals and complete any tasks at hand, so I would have to say success also motivates me.

Stephanie's Feedback
You mention "success" being a motivator; I suggest developing this a bit more to show exactly what success means and how this motivates you.
Prepare for scenario-based questions that test your enforcement judgment and field expertise.
