3600 Department of Fish & Wildlife
Infrastructure Overview

The Department of Fish and Wildlife (DFW) manages 720 properties statewide, comprising more than 1 million acres (671,218 acres owned and 463,974 acres owned by other entities, but administered by DFW). Since several state agencies purchase land for the purpose of habitat or wildlife protection, and management responsibilities for these properties are often transferred to the DFW, the acreage of land continues to increase. The 720 properties managed by the DFW include the following: 110 wildlife areas, 130 ecological reserves, 139 public access areas, 20 fish hatcheries, 284 undesignated lands, and 37 miscellaneous properties.
