USFW Partnership

Partnering with the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) and the Archery Trade Association (ATA), the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) created a short (2 minute) cinematic video which showcases how the Wildlife and Sport Fish Restoration partnerships among industry and state and federal agencies have aided this nation’s wildlife restoration and conservation achievements. The film creates an awareness of the partnerships, manufacturers'excise taxes on firearms, ammunition and archery equipment, and the conservation benefits achieved with this funding source through Wildlife Restoration Grants (Pittman-Robertson). This film is a product of the Partner with a PayerSM initiative.
