These workshops break down the Wildlife Action Plan into useful resources for conservation commissions, landowners, land trusts, and interested citizens. "It is only through a broad-based, all-hands-on-deck approach that the state will continue to protect and manage species and habitat that improve our quality of life and economy," explains John Kanter, supervisor of the Nongame and Endangered Wildlife Program at NH Fish and Game. "These workshops will help you take your wildlife and conservation efforts to the next level."
Each workshop will provide an overview of the 2015 Wildlife Action Plan, a review of the revised wildlife maps, data and information in in the updated plan, and most importantly, actions you can take to help New Hampshire's wildlife and habitats.
Dozens of scientists and more than 1,000 concerned citizens contributed to the recent update of the Wildlife Action Plan, which contains a wealth of new information about New Hampshire habitats and wildlife. The plan identifies 117 actions that span monitoring, research, species and habitat management, land protection, education and technical assistance. There are actions everyone can take to help protect wildlife in New Hampshire, from homeowners and educators to local commissions, non-profits and businesses.
