Grant Overview

Wyoming is home to some of the most iconic and pristine natural environments in the United States, including Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. However, these landscapes face significant threats from climate change, human activity, and other environmental stressors. To protect these areas, funding will be directed toward initiatives that conserve and restore Wyoming's natural heritage.

To be eligible for funding, organizations must demonstrate a deep understanding of Wyoming's unique environmental context and a commitment to conservation and restoration. This includes having experience working with local stakeholders, including ranchers, Native American tribes, and outdoor recreation groups, and a willingness to adopt innovative and collaborative approaches to conservation.

The state's natural landscapes are not only a source of pride and identity for Wyoming residents but also a critical component of the state's economy, which is driven in part by tourism and outdoor recreation. Furthermore, Wyoming's natural environments provide essential ecosystem services, including clean air and water, and habitat for a diverse range of wildlife.

Unlike neighboring states like Colorado, which has a more developed conservation infrastructure, Wyoming's rural and frontier counties require a tailored approach to conservation that takes into account the unique challenges and opportunities of these areas. The state's economy, which is driven by industries such as energy and agriculture, also presents specific environmental challenges that must be addressed through conservation efforts.

Wyoming's Conservation Landscape

Wyoming's natural environments are characterized by significant diversity, from the high desert landscapes of the Red Desert to the mountainous ecosystems of the Tetons. This diversity supports a wide range of wildlife, including iconic species such as elk, bison, and grizzly bears. However, these ecosystems are facing significant threats, including climate change, habitat fragmentation, and human-wildlife conflict.

Conservation Priorities in Wyoming

Funding will be directed toward initiatives that address Wyoming's most pressing conservation needs, including habitat rehabilitation, wildlife corridor expansion, and environmental education. Organizations must demonstrate a clear understanding of these priorities and a commitment to working collaboratively with local stakeholders to achieve conservation goals.
