U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service

The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service manages the National Wildlife Refuge System, a premier system of public lands and waters set aside to conserve America’s fish, wildlife and plants. Selawik National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1980 in part, to protect the Western Arctic caribou herd and its habitat. Selawik Refuge supports the WACH WG by contributing funding for the group’s meetings and for student and youth participation. We also work together with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game to help provide administrative support for the group.
