The Team
Wildlife Unit
The NYC Parks' Wildlife Unit promotes coexistence between people and urban wildlife. As an informed resource for citizens and policymakers, the Wildlife Unit serves as an ambassador for New York City’s diverse wildlife communities. The Wildlife Unit seeks to create a future for New York City where wildlife is a familiar, understood, and indispensable part of our urban landscape.
Project Lead: Tara Murphy
New York City Department of Parks and Recreation
NYC Parks is the steward of more than 30,000 acres of land — 14 percent of New York City — including more than 5,000 individual properties ranging from Coney Island Beach and Central Park to community gardens and Greenstreets. NYC Parks' mission is to plan resilient and sustainable parks, public spaces, and recreational amenities, build a park system for present and future generations, and care for parks and public spaces.
The City of New York launched the WildlifeNYC campaign to increase public awareness about urban wildlife. Visit the WildlifeNYC website at nyc.gov/wildlife to learn more about urban wildlife—from cutting edge management practices to volunteer events and fun facts.
