Show your commitment to conserving New Jersey’s fish and wildlife species and their habitats

During Climate Week, become a proud Wildlife Habitat Supporter and help protect and conserve New Jersey's fish and wildlife!

From mountain ridges to pinelands to wetlands and the Jersey Shore, the 360,000 acres of the Garden State’s Wildlife Management Area systemprovide excellent habitat for our fish and wildlife to thrive. These areas are also the perfect places to go year-round to enjoy the beauty of the outdoors and all nature has to offer.

Whether your passion is birding, photography, fishing, hunting, or just enjoying New Jersey’s natural beauty, helping us care for our wildlife management areas now, ensures that they’ll be around to enjoy for years to come.

The 122 Wildlife Management Areas throughout the state are owned by the NJ Department of Environmental Protection and managed by NJDEP Fish & Wildlife. They comprise more than 44% of state-owned public open space. Maintaining these properties has traditionally been supported and funded by New Jersey’s hunters and anglers. Join them during Climate Week by taking part in our Wildlife Habitat Supporter program. You can help conserve the natural beauty of New Jersey and receive a brand-new 2nd edition Wildlife Habitat Supporter sticker!
