Fish and wildlife are natural components of our nation's farms, forests, and rangelands. They contribute to healthy ecosystems, provide income to landowners and businesses, and afford recreational and aesthetic benefits to society. Each year, more than 80 million Americans fish, hunt, or watch wildlife, spending about $110 billion in the process. Some wildlife can pose problems to society. The annual cost of wildlife damage to American agriculture is nearly $1 billion, and the cost to human health and property exceeds $2 billion. Seeking to achieve a balance that sustains wildlife populations while minimizing wildlife impacts on human endeavors, CSREES partners with educational institutions such as land-grant universities, state and federal natural resources agencies, and private conservation organizations.
