History
In April 2005, the first law enforcement shooting in the history of the Department took place. The incident involved 2 park rangers and resulted in the death of a robbery suspect.[1]
In 2007, DNREC completed the first version of the Delaware Wildlife Action Plan. This plan was a strategy to conserve all of native wildlife and their habitats. The plan will be incorporated into the duties of the Division of Fish and Wildlife.[2]
In 2015, there was an updated version of the Delaware Wildlife Action Plan. This edition was a ten-year plan to conserve all fish and wildlife and their habitats. The plan lays out specific species which are in the greatest need of protection, their habitats, possible issues, research areas, and conservation techniques. The plan also focuses on increasing knowledge through education and outreach. These projects would be funded through federal State Wildlife Grants.[3]
