The Wildlife Services (WS) Program conducts a Research Needs Assessment (RNA) about every five years to determine research priorities of internal and external stakeholders for managing conflicts between humans and wildlife. The results of the RNAs, along with the Congressional directives, guidance from the WS Deputy Administrator, and stakeholder input, assist WS in establishing research priorities and allocating National Wildlife Research Center (NWRC).
