Thank you for volunteering with the Nevada Department of Wildlife! With the work and time you put in properly documented, we are able to receive in-kind funds from the Federal government for future projects. It is as if they are paying us wages our volunteers would earn if they themselves were biologists or wildlife technicians. This money accumulates as volunteers complete projects throughout the year. That money can be used for tools, equipment, vehicles, gas, water, or whatever we need to make the next project a success. Thank you for your participation with the Nevada Department of Wildlife.
