One can't talk about an animal without referring to its habitat. This is especially true when trying to manage the survival of the animal. The term "habitat" simply refers to the place where an organism lives and must include food, water, shelter (cover), and space to live. Our fish and wildlife cannont exist without these elements.
Habitat is the KEY to fish and wildlife management in Montana. These Habitat web pages provide information about FWP's most important fish and wildlife habitat conservation and restoration programs.
