Neb. Game and Parks to accept wildlife viewing grant proposals

LINCOLN — The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission soon will accept grant proposals that will enhance watchable wildlife opportunities and nature-based experiences in Nebraska.

The intent of these Watchable Wildlife Grants, which are funded through the Wildlife Conservation Fund, is to help people build appreciation and stewardship for natural resources through practical experience.

All projects must develop ways to improve wildlife observation and should have a positive impact on natural resources and wildlife.

Potential projects may include wildlife viewing blinds or decks, engaging pollinator gardens, binoculars and field guides for visitors, and wildlife viewing events.

The grant application period is Aug. 4–Oct. 3, 2025.

To apply, go to OutdoorNebraska. gov and search “Watchable Wildlife Grants.”
