The Department of Wildlife Conservation is offering the Wildlife Restoration Grant Program to fund comprehensive wildlife conservation and restoration efforts across states and insular areas. This grant is for the critical purpose of supporting projects that enhance and protect diverse wildlife populations and their essential habitats nationwide. Funds for this initiative are uniquely sourced from excise taxes collected on specific outdoor recreation equipment, including firearms, ammunition, archery equipment, and arrow components. These revenues are then appropriated from the dedicated Wildlife Restoration Account. The program distributes financial assistance grants to eligible states and insular areas, with funding amounts determined by an established apportionment formula, ensuring equitable and impactful resource allocation for vital wildlife management initiatives and sustainable ecological practices.
