The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is the state agency responsible for managing and conserving Florida’s fish and wildlife resources and their habitats, both on land and in water. Its mission is to balance the needs of people and wildlife through science-based management, public engagement, and law enforcement. The FWC oversees activities such as wildlife and freshwater fisheries management, hunting and fishing licensing, endangered species protection, invasive species control, boating safety, habitat restoration, and public education about conservation. It also manages over 6 million acres of public lands designated as Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs), providing opportunities for outdoor recreation, research, and sustainable resource use.
