The New Hampshire Fish and Game Department (NHF&G) is a department within the government of New Hampshire in the United States. The Fish and Game Department manages New Hampshire's fish, game, and aquatic plant resources.
The Department also has a Law Enforcement Division, which operates in six districts across the state. Each district is staffed by a lieutenant, a sergeant, and several Conservation Officers (CO).[6]
† Districts do not exactly align to county boundaries.
Wild Life Heritage Foundation of New Hampshireedit
In 2006, the Wildlife Heritage Foundation of New Hampshire was formed due to falling revenues from the Fish & Game Department's licenses for hunting and fishing.[7] The foundation works with and supports the Fish and Game Department on projects and events which otherwise could not be funded. The foundation is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization.[7]
Since 2017, Conservation Officers within the Fish and Game Department have been featured on the Animal Planetreality programNorth Woods Law.[8] The production company for the series makes a $2,000 donation per aired episode to the Wildlife Heritage Foundation.[8]
