The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF) today announced nearly $1.8 million in grants to restore, improve and conserve sagebrush, mesic wet meadow and big game migratory corridor habitats in Idaho, Utah and Wyoming. The grants will leverage $1.6 million in matching contributions, generating a total conservation impact of $3.4 million.

The grants were awarded through the [Rocky Mountain Rangelands Program](https://www.nfwf.org/programs/rocky-mountain-rangelands), a partnership between NFWF and Capri Holdings, Cargill, the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and Yum! Brands. The Rocky Mountain Rangelands Program was established in 2019 to work with private landowners wanting to voluntarily conserve and restore habitats for wildlife that often require large open spaces to sustain their populations, while also helping improve the economic productivity of their lands.
