Wildlife

Kansas Natural Heritage Inventory (http://www.ksnhi.ku.edu/research/current.htm ) Features information on state and federal threatened and endangered plants and wildlife, habitats of particular conservation concern, and stewardship actions designed to benefit these important natural resources. 

Includes Digital GIS data (http://www.kansasgis.org/catalog/catalog.cfm) that show generalized locations of rare species records, but these are updated infrequently and should not be used for site-specific analyses. 

**County-level information on rare plants and animal occurrences and site-specific information are available through a written request and require a fee. 

Kansas Department of Parks and Wildlife (http://www.kdwp.state.ks.us/)

Conserves and manages the state’s wildlife and aquatic resources. 

Check the State Wildlife Action Plan (http://www.kdwp.state.ks.us/news/Other-Services/Wildlife-Conservation-Plan/Kansas-CWCP) for an overview of key species and habitats of conservation concern throughout the state.
