'''Wildlife and Sport Fish Restoration Program''' (WSFR) is a Department of the Interior initiative administered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Office of Conservation Investment that has disbursed over $29 billion from excise taxes on hunting, shooting, fishing equipment, and boat fuel to state and territorial fish and wildlife agencies since 1937, supporting conservation across more than 46.9 million acres as of 2025. 
Encompassing the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act (1937) and Dingell-Johnson Sport Fish Restoration Act (1950), it funded over $1.3 billion in FY 2025 for projects like habitat restoration, stocking over 1 billion fish annually, and building 553 shooting ranges in the past five years, enhancing species like deer and waterfowl while generating a $394 billion economic impact from outdoor recreation in 2022.
