Wolf Conflict Reduction Fund
About the Fund
Wolves are now part of Colorado’s working landscapes, where livestock producers and rural communities are adapting to new challenges. The Wolf Conflict Reduction Fund supports practical, proactive approaches that can help reduce livestock losses and conflict, including range riding, fladry, scare devices, guardian animals, fencing, and other livestock-management practices.
Learn more about the Fund through our Brochure and CSU Press Releases.
Support the Fund
Donations to the Wolf Conflict Reduction Fund support practical, on-the-ground efforts to reduce wolf-livestock conflict and help livestock producers and local communities adapt to living with wolves. Donations are tax-deductible through the CSU Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit affiliated with Colorado State University.
Apply for Support
Via the Wolf Conflict Reduction Fund, CSU is offering grants to assist local communities and livestock producers to implement non-lethal tools to reduce conflict with wolves. The award amount is flexible and based on available funding.
The grants are distributed through a competitive application process selected by a committee comprised of CSU scientists, CSU Extension agents, federal and state wildlife agencies, non-governmental organizations, and livestock producers.
