Revenue from fishing and hunting license fees, federal funds and other
sources are used to accomplish efforts to conserve, manage and protect
New York State’s fish, wildlife and marine resources and their habitats;
inform and educate the public; and provide opportunities for people to
use and appreciate these resources. As shown in the charts below, the
Division’s budget sustains a wide array of fish, wildlife, marine and habitat
management tasks, conservation education, law enforcement and
support work; all of which are essential to ensure the Division can
effectively serve the wildlife and people of New York.
