Partners Program Promotes In Wisconsin, 85 percent of the land base is privately owned. Likewise, the fish and wildlife that residents and visitors watch, photograph and harvest spend some or all of their life cycles on private lands. Wisconsins fish and wildlife populations depend on private lands. The Partners for Fish and Wildlife (PFW) program works one-on-one with private landowners to improve respective fish and wildlife habitats. During initial site visits, program biologists work with private landowners to identify potential projects and assess the feasibility of restoring native plant communities on their properties. If private lands are eligible for the PFW program, a wildlife management agreement and plan will be developed to get projects underway. The involvement and commitment of landowners to improve their lands for fish and wildlife habitat makes them better stewards of Wisconsins natural resources. |
