The Wildlife Restoration Grant Program, officially known as the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act, was enacted by Congress in 1937 to provide crucial funding for wildlife conservation. This federal grant specifically supports the selection, restoration, rehabilitation, and improvement of wildlife habitats. It also allocates resources for essential wildlife management research and the dissemination of valuable project information. In 1970, the Act was expanded to include funding for comprehensive hunter safety programs and the development, operation, and maintenance of firearm and archery ranges, contributing significantly to both wildlife preservation and safer recreational activities for the public.
