Purpose: Analysis was completed by NH Natural Heritage Bureau/The Nature Conservancy for incorporation into the NH Wildlife Action Plan. Funding was provided by State Wildlife Grants administered by the US Fish and Wildlife Service. Supplemental_Information: The New Hampshire Fish and Game Department (NHFGD) has worked together with partners in the conservation community to create the state's first Wildlife Action Plan (WAP). The plan, which was mandated and funded by the federal government through the State Wildlife Grants program, provides New Hampshire decision-makers with important tools for restoring and maintaining critical habitats and populations of the state's species of conservation and management concern. It is a pro-active effort to define and implement a strategy that will help keep species off of rare species lists. For more information about the NH Wildlife Action Plan, please see the files wapexecsummary.pdf and wapplannershandout.pdf.

The WAP data were prepared with spatial models that used data at multiple scales and are time-limited. The user is advised of these complications.
