The International Affairs Program delivers on this mission through its financial assistance

credit:


programs by supporting strategic projects that deliver measurable conservation results for priority species and their habitats around the world.

In response to the decline of rhinoceros populations in Africa and Asia, the U. S. Government enacted the Rhinoceros and Tiger Conservation Act in 199 4. The Act provides for the conservation and protection of rhinoceros by supporting conservation programs in countries within their ranges and the projects of persons and organizations with demonstrated expertise in rhinoceros conservation.

The U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) works closely with national governments, U. S. agencies, and a range of other partners to ensure a strategic, results-based approach to rhinoceros conservation in Africa and Asia.

This funding opportunity aligns with the Service mission.

Funding Opportunity The Service is soliciting proposals for the following subject area:
Site-Based Conservation of Key 1, Key 2, and Other Populations that are Important to the Survival of Critically Endangered Species of Rhinoceros Description:
The U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s African Rhinoceros conservation program prioritizes projects involving direct site-based conservation actions for Key 1, Key 2, and other populations that are important to the survival of critically endangered species of rhinoceros.

Funding decisions will consider the significance of the particular population to the survival of the species.

Proposed project work should occur within rhinoceros range, or if work is to be conducted outside of the range, the proposal should show clear relevance to rhinoceros field conservation actions.

Proposals must identify immediate threats to rhinoceros survival and support direct conservation activities to eliminate or reduce those threats.

Biological management of rhinoceros populations should be considered.

Proposed projects should demonstrate how they address regional and/or national rhinoceros management plans.

This funding opportunity solicits multi-year awards for organizations supporting field conservation at one or more sites of Key 1, Key 2 and important populations.

This funding priority will solicit multiple, three- to five-year awards with a range of $50,000 to $100,000 USD/per year for each site.

If an organization plans to submit for multiple sites, they are encouraged to include them in one proposal.
