Endangered Species COVID-19 Relief

Who is invited? Anyone from an organization that cared for endangered and threatened species or rescued or confiscated wildlife and that experienced earned revenue losses as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) have entered into a cooperative agreement to implement Section 6003(a)(2) of Public Law (P.L.) 117-2, the American Rescue Plan Act. The enacted language of Section 6003(a)(2) states:

“$30,000,000 shall be for the care of captive species listed under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, for the care of rescued and confiscated wildlife, and for the care of Federal trust species in facilities experiencing lost revenues due to COVID–19.”
