Fulfill national and state needs for improving communication for management of publically appreciated fish and wildlife.
PUBLIC BENEFIT: Support of information sharing on research, best practices, and management of wildlife and habitat through national collaboration efforts helps land and wildlife management agencies provide the public with enhanced experiences on public lands and continued opportunities to be more informed public stewards of public lands resources for wildlife development and utilization.
