In response to a congressional mandate, the SC DNR has concluded a major planning effort to identify the challenges facing the state’s diverse wildlife species and devise strategies to conserve those species and their habitats. Known as South Carolina’s Comprehensive Wildlife Conservation Strategy, the result is a guide to conserving the 1,240 species of fish and wildlife that have immediate conservation needs or are key indicators of the diversity and health of the state’s wildlife.
