What does the FWC do?

When people think of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, many people think of game wardens (this is a pet-peeve of Travis').  The folks at FWC do much more than just monitor hunting areas and enforcing those laws and issuing hunting/boating licenses.  All of these things are important but some of the other things they do are pretty neat too.

The FWC is involved in many projects across the state that research things like breeding, migrating patterns, biology of the animals, and of course conservation efforts.  They strive to educate the public about wildlife and teach people about what they can do to help preserve Florida's wildlife and their natural habitats.

I encourage you to get to know more about the FWC and I plan to post more about specific research they've done that's helped manage fish and wildlife resources for their long-term well-being and the benefit of you and I.
