Wildlife needs wild places, protected from development and negative human impact. The Florida Wildlife Federation advocates for sound habitat conservation policies at the local, state, and national level; promotes the creation of Wildlife Habitats in schoolyards, communities, and backyards throughout Florida; and works directly with county governments throughout the state to implement land conservation measures.

One of the greatest threats to wildlife and habitat is the impact of climate change, and Florida is particularly at risk. The Florida Wildlife Federation promotes climate change solutions in Florida, working alongside industry, communities, and governments for green jobs and environmentally-sound policies that slow climate change and protect Florida.
