2025 Maine State Wildlife Action Plan Revision

Maine's State Wildlife Action Plans serves as our blueprints for proactively conserving fish and wildlife to prevent species from becoming endangered. First created in 2005, the plan is updated every 10 years to periodically evaluate the health of wildlife populations and identify conservation opportunities.

Now is our chance—MDIFW, conservation partners, and you, the public—to set the framework for the next 10 years of conservation. Together we can better protect Maine's fish, wildlife, and natural resources.

Conservation partners and the public are critical to updating the plan and putting its recommendations into practice. The public will be invited to share their thoughts via upcoming surveys and focus groups. Additional details will be posted on this website page as they are scheduled.
