About Me:
Bringing back the majestic elk and being the first state to successfully trap antelope are among the agency's top achievements. Seven hatcheries now provide kokanee salmon, rainbow and cutthroat trout, and warm-water fish species for stocking. River otter and Rio Grande cutthroat trout restoration programs demonstrate the state's dedication to continued restoration of the state's complete suite of species.
Director Jim Lane, formerly the Chief of the Wildlife Management Division, has helped increase numbers of big-game licenses, improved communication within the agency and with sportsmen and landowners, established a four-year rule process to improve big-game and small-game management decisions, and initiated the process to delist endangered desert bighorn sheep. He previously worked with the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources as an environmental scientist, wildlife division director, wildlife program coordinator and other positions. He holds a master's degree in forestry from the University of Kentucky, and is a current member of the National Wild Turkey Federation and Ducks Unlimited.
NMDGF videos showcase the state's six eco regions and the wide variety of wild animals found in the fifth largest state. The videos are fully in step with the Department of Game and Fish mission of using a flexible system of management to provide the state's citizens with wildlife for recreation and food supply.
From grassland species such as pronghorn antelope and lesser prairie chickens, to the alpine wilderness homes of Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep, New Mexico offers its citizens and visitors tremendous opportunities to enjoy the wildlife heritage of North America.
Monstrous bull elk in the Gila Wilderness and exotic species from Africa and Iran roam freely here, making it attractive to hunters from across the country. Anglers can enjoy catching the native Gila trout that spent more than 40 years on the Endangered Species List, and hard-fighting rainbows on the San Juan River.
Watch NMDGF videos and then come see New Mexico for yourself.
