The public is invited to help MassWildlife stock trout during school vacation week. Join stocking events in Palmer, Pittsfield, Plymouth, Woburn, and Worcester.

This spring, be mindful of amphibians as they emerge from their winter retreats and travel to breeding sites. Use caution while driving on rainy spring nights.

After completing the program, young hunters can take part in a special mentored turkey hunt. Participants can choose between an in-person or self-paced, online seminar.

NWTF’s Innovation Award recognizes Tisa’s leadership in promoting wildlife conservation and increasing hunting opportunities along with an ongoing partnership between MassWildlife and the NWTF Massachusetts Chapter.

Ice cover on ponds can decrease oxygen levels and cause a natural fish kill. While many areas of Massachusetts experienced relatively mild winter conditions this year, fish kills are still possible.

Deer harvests in 2022 set a new record and are aligned with deer management goals for Massachusetts. Extra venison was donated to families in need.
