The North Carolina Wildlife Action Plan (NCWAP) is intended to provide a foundation for State and Federal agencies and other conservation partners to think strategically about their individual roles and coordinate prioritizing conservation efforts throughout the state.  At a minimum, North Carolina's Plan will be comprehensively evaluated and revised every 10 years. However, we expect that as new information is discovered about the status of species and natural communities we will need to develop interim updates. You can help us by sharing your knowledge about the state's fish and wildlife species and their habitats. For example, we want to hear about 

• the projects you (or your organization) are working on that implement priority conservation recommendations outlined in the NCWAP,
• what you have learned from research concerning fish and wildlife or their habitats,
• how climate change is being included in your planning processes and projects, or
• are there emerging concerns that have not been addressed in the NCWAP that will impact species or their habitats in North Carolina.

These are just a few examples of the types of information we would like for you to share with us.  For more information about updates to the NCWAP, contact Cindy Carr at (919) 707-0227 or send an email to cindy.carr@ncwildlife.org.
