Here is your chance to be heard

State wildlife workers would like you to help them determine how best to preserve wildlife in Arizona.

The Arizona Game and Fish department is holding meetings around the state over the next two months, including one held Wednesday in Tucson, to get comments on the State Wildlife Action Plan, or SWAP.

"We've taken the criteria that we developed several years ago, we've revisited those, tried to rewrite some of the criteria to make them clearer and more logical," says Thomas R. Jones of Arizona Game and Fish. "We've added criteria, we've taken away criteria, and we're asking our partners and the public to address that issue."

You can read the SWAP plan for yourself and offer your take on Arizona's wildlife.
