New Mexico Game and Fish holding public meetings on Wildlife Action Plan

NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – The New Mexico Department of Game and Fish is holding two public meetings on the State Wildlife Action Plan for New Mexico (SWAP).

The SWAP looks at Species of Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN) and identifies their threats, habitats and actions that can be taken to reduce the threats and help with conservation. The 10-year SWAP review and revision was started in 2023 and is due to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service by October 2025.

The meetings will give an update on the SWAP review and revision process and allow for public comment. The meetings can be attended in person or virtually via Zoom.
