Wildlife Movement Through Partnerships Act

HR 8836 establishes a grant program to fund projects improving habitat connectivity for migratory wildlife, particularly big game species like deer, elk, and pronghorn. It provides up to 90% federal funding for initiatives such as wildlife crossings, fence modifications, habitat restoration, and coordination with landowners, administered through the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation. Eligible recipients include state and tribal wildlife agencies, landowners, nonprofits, and transportation departments. The bill explicitly prohibits requiring changes to agriculture, mining, or existing land uses and preserves state/Tribal authority over wildlife management.
