The White Mountain Apache Tribe’s conservation agency manages wildlife and fisheries resources within their sovereign lands in Arizona. This entity is responsible for the sustainable management of animal populations and aquatic ecosystems through regulated hunting, fishing, and habitat protection efforts.
Effective oversight of these natural assets is crucial for preserving biodiversity, supporting recreational opportunities for tribal members and visitors, and maintaining the ecological balance within the reservation. This integrated management approach honors tribal traditions while incorporating modern scientific principles for long-term sustainability.
