Florida
passed its Endangered Species Act in 1976, giving the Florida Fish and
Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) research and management authority
for state listed animals. Since that time, a great deal has been learned
and accomplished regarding their management needs. FWC currently lists
118 species as Endangered, Threatened or Special Concern.
On this site you will find rules and regulations along with other information
pertaining to these animals. Thank you for your interest and support
for listed species recovery in Florida.
