In celebration of Tennessee Wildlife Federation’s 75th year, Gary Myers talks about the importance of having an organization like the Federation for partnership and accountability.
Gary Myers severed as the executive director of Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA) for 31 years, 1978–2009, making him the longest-serving wildlife chief in the nation.
This year, the Federation celebrated 17 individuals and companies from across the state who are conserving our wildlife and wild places.
Tennessee Wildlife Federation completed its 12th wetland restoration project in March on 50 acres in the floodplain of the Buffalo River, bringing the total wetlands restored to more than 1,000 acres.
A milestone for the program was met this deer season with historic numbers from generous hunters who donated—an all-time high—3,116 deer.
