The United States Fish and Wildlife Service, otherwise referred to as FWS, is a federal government agency that is operating within the United States Department of the Interior.

The unrelenting efforts of the Fish and Wildlife Service are concentrated on overseeing the management of fish, wildlife, and habitats.

The agency makes it its mission to form partnerships with others in order to be able to work towards the conservation, protection, and improvement of the nation's fish, wildlife, and plant ecosystems, as well as their habitats for the continued benefits of the American people.
