The draft 2025 update of the Maine Wildlife Action Plan is ready for your review!
Maine's State Wildlife Action Plan (SWAP) provides a blueprint for actively conserving fish and wildlife to help prevent species from becoming endangered and recovering those that are. First created in 2005, the plan is updated every 10 years to periodically evaluate the health of wildlife populations and identify conservation opportunities.
The SWAP is a collaboration of Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife, Maine Natural Areas Program, Maine Department of Marine Resources, Maine Audubon, and many other members of Maine's conservation community who share a common goal of assessing the status of Maine’s biodiversity and identifying conservation priorities for the coming decade.
We encourage you to contribute your knowledge and experience by carefully reviewing the draft SWAP (in whole or in part) and providing feedback using our online form. While we welcome all input, comments that are specific, constructive, or offer potential solutions are most useful. Comments must be submitted by Sunday, August 31 at 11:59pm. Public comments will be summarized and reviewed by the Maine Wildlife Action Plan Coordination Team.
