The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is offering grants to state wildlife management agencies to address issues related to white-nose syndrome (WNS). This funding opportunity, totaling up to $1 million for 2017, aims to build and adapt state capacity for the management and control of WNS and its causative fungus, Pseudogymnoascus destructans (Pd). Priority will be given to proposed activities in states where WNS or Pd has been detected, with particular emphasis on the disease’s leading edge where Pd is not omnipresent; however, all states are encouraged to apply. This grant is for supporting state efforts in endangered species conservation and recovery, specifically targeting the devastating impact of WNS on bat populations.
