Abstract: Section 8 of the Endangered Species Act (16 U.S.C. 1531-43) authorizes the establishment of the Wildlife Without Borders-Critically Endangered Animals Conservation Fund to fund projects that conserve the world's most endangered species. Critically endangered animals are those that face an extremely high risk of extinction in the immediate future. Funding is limited to vertebrate species with natural habitat ranges in developing countries. Applicants must submit an application containing ample information to support informed proposal selection. A panel of technical experts reviews each proposal to assess how well the proposed project addresses the requirements and priorities identified in the program’s Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA). The information we collect will ensure that sufficient information is provided to allow reviewers to select proposals for funding.
