What is the Comprehensive Fish and Wildlife Conservation Strategy (CFWCS)?
Montana’s “strategy” is a technical assessment and analysis of the state’s fish, wildlife, and their habitats. It analyzes where species are doing well, where they are not, determines where survey and inventory efforts are needed, and suggests where improvements can be made. It is a broad-scale look at all of Montana’s more than 600 species, showing how all species are connected when tied to habitat, and how conserving the habitat of one species can benefit many species.
