How will contributions to the Wildlife Heritage Fund be used?
These donations are used to study, protect, and manage our nongame wildlife, endangered species, and special natural areas.
Since 1986, when the Wildlife Heritage Fund was established, tax refund contributions have been used to (1) fund more than one hundred research projects which produced valuable information on rare plant and animal species, (2) reintroduce bald eagles to our state's barrier islands, (3) record and publish the songs and sounds of Mississippi's birds and frogs, and (4) help rehabilitate injured birds of prey.
