  • Adapting to Conservation Challenges: Game and Fish Agencies Across the U.S. Implement Changes
    Jul 12 2025
    This week in Game and Fish news across the United States, several state agencies are implementing significant changes and convening for important decisions. In Oregon, the Department of Fish and Wildlife has announced a conservation closure for razor clam harvesting along Clatsop beaches, which begins July fifteenth. The closure is part of ongoing efforts to protect local shellfish populations and ensure sustainable management practices. The Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission met July eleventh in The Dalles to discuss additional conservation measures.

    In Arizona, the Game and Fish Commission and department have initiated a public rulemaking process to amend wildlife and licensing regulations. The proposed changes, announced on July eleventh, are intended to simplify procedures, clarify existing rules, and enhance public access to department services without increasing regulatory burden. Community members are invited to submit written or oral comments, with a public meeting scheduled for early September in Eagar, Arizona, to ensure that the regulatory overhaul reflects public input and current conservation needs.

    Arkansas has also seen recent developments, with the Game and Fish Commission holding a meeting on July ninth in Little Rock to announce the appointment of a new commissioner. This leadership change comes as the commission continues to focus on local wildlife management, waterfowl reporting, and transparent communication through regular newsletters and meeting updates.

    In New Mexico, the Department of Game and Fish is transitioning its Elk Private Land Use System, known as EPLUS, to an online platform, streamlining access and management for landowners and hunters. Over-the-counter licenses for the twenty twenty-five to twenty twenty-six season are now available, including for fishing and turkey. The department has also rescheduled leftover license sales and announced periodic closures of the Stephen M. Bush Memorial Shooting Range, demonstrating an increased focus on digital access and adaptive facility management.

    At the federal level, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service continues its broad mandate to conserve and protect wildlife resources. The service operates more than five hundred sixty national wildlife refuges and seventy fish hatcheries nationwide. This month, the Aquatic Nuisance Species Task Force convened a virtual meeting, highlighting ongoing concerns about invasive species and their impact on native ecosystems. Meanwhile, the service is striving to maintain its operations despite challenges related to staffing and funding, as noted earlier this year by the National Wildlife Refuge Association, which expressed concern about mass employee terminations within the service that could undermine conservation efforts and habitat protection.

    These updates reveal a pattern of adaptation among U.S. Game and Fish agencies, with a growing emphasis on public engagement, digital innovation, and regulatory review to meet persistent and emerging conservation challenges. Across the country, both state and federal agencies are working to ensure that wildlife resources are managed effectively for current and future generations.

  • "Unlocking Conservation: Game and Fish Agencies Tackle Invasive Species and Protect Vulnerable Wildlife Across the U.S."
    Jul 9 2025
    In the past week, Game and Fish news across the United States has highlighted efforts in wildlife conservation, invasive species management, and agency developments. In Florida, anticipation is building for the 2025 Florida Python Challenge, which opens on July 11 and now includes Everglades National Park as one of eight official competition sites. Hosted by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission along with the South Florida Water Management District, the event aims to raise public awareness and encourage active removal of invasive Burmese pythons from the Everglades. Competitors will compete for over twenty-five thousand dollars in prizes, including a ten-thousand-dollar grand prize for most pythons removed. The pythons, which can lay up to one hundred eggs at a time, have devastated populations of birds, mammals, and reptiles in south Florida. Since 2000, more than twenty-three thousand pythons have been removed, but the species remains a persistent threat to native wildlife, prompting year-round removal efforts on both public and private lands.

    Meanwhile, in Arkansas, the Game and Fish Commission recently announced the appointment of a new commissioner during a meeting held in Little Rock. The Commission has also released its latest fishing reports and continues to provide weekly updates on wildlife and waterfowl, reflecting ongoing efforts to support local hunting and fishing communities.

    On the West Coast, the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife is preparing for a razor clam conservation closure beginning July 15 along Clatsop beaches. This action aims to protect razor clam populations during a critical period, reflecting growing concerns over habitat sustainability and species health.

    At the federal level, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service continues to play a central role in managing national conservation priorities. The Service is distributing over fifty-five million dollars in funding to state wildlife agencies across the country through the State Wildlife Grant Program, supporting the protection and recovery of priority species and habitats and helping prevent further federal listings of threatened and endangered species. This funding allocation comes as the Service faces ongoing workload challenges due to increased environmental review responsibilities, according to recent congressional hearings on the fiscal year 2025 budget proposal.

    Internationally, while recent major events have centered on the U.S., the trend remains focused on balancing conservation with community engagement and economic needs. Patterns are emerging of increased hands-on public involvement, from invasive species challenges in Florida to agency-led conservation closures on the West Coast, all against a backdrop of evolving funding and regulatory landscapes. These coordinated efforts underscore the ongoing importance of adaptive management in Game and Fish policy, especially as both invasive threats and conservation needs continue to grow.

  • Transformative Conservation Initiatives Reshape Game and Fish Landscape Nationwide
    Jul 7 2025
    This week in Game and Fish news across the United States, several notable updates and events are shaping conservation efforts, regulatory discussions, and opportunities for hunters and anglers. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Fisheries division is currently seeking public comments on a set of exempted fishing permit applications led by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. These projects are designed to test management strategies that could reduce the discards of red snapper and other snapper-grouper species, create additional chances for sustainable recreational harvest, and enhance angler satisfaction. The recent stock assessment for South Atlantic red snapper found the population is no longer overfished, yet it remains in a rebuilding phase and post-release mortality from recreational fishing continues to be the highest contributor to fishing mortality. The public is encouraged to comment on these permit applications through July 22, 2025, to help shape future red snapper management practices.

    In a significant development at the national policy level, President Donald Trump issued an executive order on July 3, 2025, establishing the Make America Beautiful Again Commission. This commission will bring together key federal agencies, conservation organizations, and private partners to coordinate initiatives that are priorities for hunters and anglers. The focus will be on revitalizing public lands and waters, improving wildlife habitats, enhancing recreational access, and strengthening efforts to protect water resources and restore forests. Conservation leaders, including the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership, support the commission’s strategic approach, positioning it as a pivotal effort to ensure the sustainability of outdoor traditions and natural resources as the United States approaches its 250th anniversary.

    At the state level, the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission, in partnership with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Ducks Unlimited, and Bass Pro Shops, unveiled the 2025-2026 Federal Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation Stamp. The stamp, popularly known as the Federal Duck Stamp, features a painting of two spectacled eiders and is required for hunting most migratory waterfowl. With sales beginning this week, the program continues a legacy that has raised over 1.2 billion dollars since 1934, supporting the conservation of more than 6 million acres of wetlands nationwide.

    Elsewhere, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is inviting further public input on its Endangered Species Act Section 10A program, aiming to improve conservation benefit agreements and habitat conservation plans. This collaborative approach empowers landowners and stakeholders to proactively protect vulnerable species, aligning conservation actions with the needs of local communities and industries. Public comments are being accepted through July 9, 2025. These developments reflect a growing emphasis on transparency, public involvement, and cross-sector partnerships as the cornerstones of modern conservation and game management in the United States.
