The Manitoba government is putting up almost a million dollars this year to help protect fish and wildlife.
The Manitoba government has approved $958,000 for new projects this year through the Fish and Wildlife Enhancement Fund that will go to 17 projects to protect and monitor fish and wildlife species and bolster access to fishing and hunting opportunities.
The money comes from a provincial fund that is supported through donations and restitution payments collected from fish and wildlife infractions
The fund continues to grow every year, as the Manitoba government contributes 10 percent of the annual fees collected from recreational angling, hunting, and trapping licenses.
In addition, the fund is supported through restitution payments collected from fish and wildlife infractions, along with donations to the fund.
