Arizona Habitat Enhancement Program

Arizona Game and Fish Department


The Habitat Enhancement Program funds landscape-scale projects that boost game and non-game wildlife populations, paid for by big game tag application fees and federal Pittman-Robertson money. Annual funding usually tops $1 million, and shovel-ready projects that bring in several partners and funding sources get priority. It shares an application cycle with the Landowner Relations Program.
