A Word from Our Partners, Montana Partners for Fish and Wildlife, U.S. Fish andWildlife Service

Department of Agriculture, Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks, Watershed Groups, The Arctic Grayling Recovery Program, Ducks Unlimited, and Trout Unlimited also recognized the need to focus. Many of these organizations reinforced their commitment to this principle by developing strategic plans.
