Additional Information on Eligibility
A NOTICE OF INTENT to award is issued by the US Fish and Wildlife Service to the state of Idaho, Office of Species Conservation, according to 505 DM2.14(B)4 . NO COMPETITION IS EXPECTED; PLEASE DO NOT APPLY TO THIS OPPORTUNITY. The Service and its partners recognize that addressing wolf recovery needs must include participation by the state of Idaho as managers of most species of fish and wildlife within its borders. Benefits of collaborative partnerships in endangered species recovery planning include ensuring a shared management vision and recovery goals that complement goals for other species that co-occur with gray wolf, and enlist the help of the state fish and wildlife managers to ensure the ecosystems upon which gray wolf depend are conserved
Grant Description
The gray wolf population in the western U.S. has reached its numerical and distributional recovery goals. In April 2011, an act of Congress removed wolves from the endangered species list, returning management authority to the states of Idaho and Montana, including responsibility for monitoring. The Service currently has MOUs with the State of Idaho, State of Montana, and the Nez Perce Tribe to manage wolves. Montana and Idaho have Service-accepted state wolf management plans for wolves. Monitoring must continue to document the population status of the wolf for a period of 5 years post de-listing (50 CFR part 17, section 4(g)(1)).
