The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is the oldest federal conservation agency, tracing its lineage back to 1871, and the only agency in the federal government whose primary responsibility is management of fish and wildlife for the American public. The Service helps ensure a healthy environment for people by providing opportunities for Americans to enjoy the outdoors and our shared natural heritage.
We manage the National Wildlife Refuge System with more than 560 National Wildlife Refuges as well as small wetlands and other special management areas encompassing more than 150 million acres. Under the Fisheries program we also operate over 70 National Fish Hatcheries and 65 fishery resource offices. The Ecological Services program has 86 field stations across all 50 states.
The vast majority of fish and wildlife habitat is on non-federal lands. Voluntary habitat protection and restoration programs like the Partners for Fish and Wildlife Program and the Coastal Program and other partnership programs are the primary ways we deliver habitat conservation on public and private lands.
The Service employs approximately 9,000 people at facilities across the U.S. The Service is a decentralized organization with a headquarters office in Washington, D.C., with regional and field offices across the country. Our organizational chart shows structure and also provides information on senior management.

    this is absurd,, why allow so many amateurish entries and waste everyones time. most of it was unwatchable and i just tried to skip from one entry to the other.. and where on earth did you get those judges, they certainly weren't bird watchers or hunters who actually knew what birds and ducks are supposed to look like..college art professors, gallery owners or kindergarten teachers no doubt.. some of the ones that received in votes could have been drawn by a 5th grader with a crayon. ive seen quite a few stamps i thought were way below par over the 50 or so years ive been hunting and bird watching, now i see why. there were some good ones, the winner was good but not the best. put some wildfowl experts on the panel and have them eliminate the poor quality ones before judging begins. then it will be a good show. just silly

    Too bad the Grayling used the trout spawning beds...... removing them crippled the Grayling population in the long run. Stick to removing the Beavers and invasive Char from the system, or else there won't be any Grayling left.

    We can probably help to create a larger aerobic zone in the lake without the use of power driven aeration. The technique we have developed has allowed salmonids to survive in many lakes where it was not previously possible. This effort would be very personally satisfying to get involved with.
