Opportunity Information: Apply for F18AS00315
The Wolf Livestock Loss Demonstration Project (WLLDP) is a competitive federal grant program run by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service, and authorized under Subtitle C of the Omnibus Public Lands Management Act of 2009 (P.L. 111-11). The program is designed to address conflicts between wolves and livestock producers by funding two distinct, equally supported tracks: prevention and compensation. Congress directed that the financial assistance be awarded competitively and that available funds be split evenly between these two purposes, meaning prevention activities and compensation payments are intended to receive comparable overall funding support.
The prevention side of the program funds proactive, nonlethal measures that help livestock producers reduce the risk of wolf predation before losses occur. These management activities can take place on federal land, state land, private land, or on land owned by or held in trust for the benefit of a federally recognized Tribe. While the opportunity summary does not list specific tools, the emphasis is clearly on nonlethal deterrence and livestock protection strategies that prevent depredation rather than responding after an incident.
The compensation side of the program supports reimbursement to livestock producers for livestock losses that are attributable to wolf predation. In practice, this track is meant to help states and tribes operate or supplement compensation systems that repay producers after verified losses, reducing the financial burden on ranchers and communities affected by wolf-livestock conflicts. States and tribes can apply to support compensation programs, prevention programs, or both, but the grant requires that separate proposals be submitted for each type of funding requested, keeping the prevention and compensation budgets and plans distinct.
Eligibility is limited to state governments and federally recognized Native American tribal governments. The funding instrument is a discretionary grant under CFDA 15.666, with an award ceiling of $450,000 per award and an expectation of around 10 total awards. For the funding round described, the opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F18AS00315) was created on August 20, 2018, with applications due by October 19, 2018, at 8:00 PM Eastern Time. Overall, WLLDP is structured to help states and tribes both reduce future wolf-related livestock losses through nonlethal prevention and offset verified losses through compensation, with an explicit requirement that the program’s total resources be balanced across both goals.Apply for F18AS00315
