Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks is in need of reform.
​MTFWP must become a department that focuses on wildlife conservation by prioritizing the needs of wildlife and wildlife habitat above political or special interests.  

The new agency should be called the MT Wildlife Conservation Department.  This new organization would push for:
  • Full funding from the state of Montana so that special interests can no longer use money for influence.
  • Get the full funding needed to protect species, purchase more critical habitat and enhance the restoration of rivers and lands.
  • Guide decision making with the use of scientific information.
  • Focus on achieving long-term goals of humans co-existing with wildlife and environmental sustainability.
  • Ending environmentally destructive activities like recreational trapping and the slaughter of predatory wildlife.
  • The members of the Fish & Wildlife Commission would not be chosen by the Governor and the Department would be free from legislative interference. 
  • New Commissioners would come from an election or from a process that allows for conservationists and wildlife specialists to be integral to the Commission.​

What is Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks?
​
Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks (MTFWP) is a department of the state of Montana that is responsible for managing wildlife in Montana. 
In the United States, the Department of the Interior manages these public lands: National Parks; Wildlife Refuges; and, Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lands.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture manages U.S. National
Forests. 
Yet nationwide, the wildlife that rely on these different types of public land is managed differently by each individual state via a state agency or department, such as MTFWP in Montana.
