Attention Wildlife Conservationists!

NJDEP Fish & Wildlife is updating New Jersey’s State Wildlife Action Plan (SWAP). The NJ SWAP is focused on the conservation of species and habitats to prevent them from becoming more rare and costly to protect or restore. Public comment is an important part of ensuring the needs of New Jersey’s Wildlife are addressed.

NJFW is seeking public comments on the updated Species of Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN) based on our selection process: information sources, criteria applied, and fatal flaw analysis of the resulting SGCN list.

Comments are due by May 10, 2024. We look forward to hearing from you!
