America's Bountiful Waters: 150 Years of Fisheries Conservation and the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service

Details about America's Bountiful Waters: 150 Years of Fisheries Conservation and the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service:

Fish and Aquatic Conservation (FAC) in the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service is the direct descendant of the U.S. Fish Commission, founded in 1871. In 2021, FAC marks its 150th anniversary, the oldest conservation agency in history. To commemorate this milestone, U.S. F&W will publish a compelling history to celebrate the broad-thinking scientists, writers, and artists who led us through the gilded age of American ichthyology into the present day.
