Overview
Fossil energy development on western public lands has greatly expanded in the last few years and now threatens important fish and wildlife habitat. Hunters and anglers have special credibility with the public and policymakers. This renewal grant would support the National Wildlife Federation’s program to engage hunters and anglers to ensure key wildlife and fish habitat remains off-limits to fossil-energy leasing and development and that leasing reforms adopted by the U.S. Department of the Interior are not weakened.
