who started the us fish and wildlife service?
june 30, 1940
on 21 april 1910, the united states congress assigned the responsibility for the management and harvest of northern fur seals, foxes and other fur-bearing animals in the pribilof islands in the bering sea, as well as for the care, education, and welfare of the aleut communities in the islands to the united states bureau of fisheries. the fish and wildlife service – renamed the united states fish and wildlife service (usfws) after a 1956 reorganization – assumed these responsibilities when it replaced the bureau of fisheries in 1940. since 1917, the bureau of fisheries and fish and wildlife service had operated a "pribilof tender" – a dedicated supply vessel used to transport passengers and cargo to and from the pribilof islands – and by 1962 the fish and wildlife service had deemed the most recent tender, mv "penguin ii", too small to continue in the role and in need of replacement.
