The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is offering the State Wildlife Grant Program to provide federal funds to States, the District of Columbia, Commonwealths, and territories. This grant is specifically designed for developing and implementing programs benefiting diverse wildlife and their habitats, including species not typically hunted or fished. Activities supported include both planning, which directly contributes to the State’s Comprehensive Wildlife Conservation Plan (Wildlife Action Plan), and implementation activities to execute these plans. Priority for funding is placed on species with the greatest conservation need, considering available resources. Certain activities like general wildlife education and law enforcement are ineligible unless they are minor, incidental, and critical components of a direct conservation project aligned with the State’s Wildlife Action Plan.
