Mississippi MDWFP K-9 Unit Supports Wildlife Law Enforcement

The Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks (MDWFP) has a specialized K-9 Unit that plays a vital role in conservation law enforcement. The unit includes highly trained dogs and handlers dedicated to protecting Mississippi’s wildlife.

These K-9s are not attack dogs. Instead, they assist officers with tasks such as evidence recovery, tracking, and enforcing conservation laws. Their training focuses on supporting wildlife law enforcement efforts and protecting natural resources.

MDWFP officials encourage the public to learn more about the K-9 Unit’s work. A full episode showcasing the dogs and their handlers is available online.
