While the FWC is always concerned about Florida's fish and wildlife resources, public safety is the agency's number one priority, especially before, during and after hurricanes and tropical storms.
The best way people can stay safe and help wildlife in storm conditions is to be alert and give wildlife their space. People should not attempt a wildlife rescue during or after a hurricane or tropical storm as this would put them in a potentially dangerous situation.
The FWC works cooperatively with many partners across the state to assess and address the impacts of hurricanes and tropical storms on wildlife populations, wildlife habitats, and ecology.1
