This process is intended to reach the public and increase the diversity of future alliances.

Background

The Arizona Game and Fish Department (AZGFD) conserves and protects the state’s 800-plus species of wildlife. The AZGFD’s critical on-the-ground work is done without any general fund tax dollars. Primary funding is through sales of fishing and hunting licenses, tags or stamps, and via federal excise taxes on firearms/ammunition and fishing/boating equipment.

AZGFD is interested in building relationships with entities operating in Arizona and establishing public-private alliances that will allow AZGFD to reach new customers and provide funding for wildlife conservation. AZGFD is seeking alliances that will exemplify the Governor’s emphasis on embracing innovation to promote Arizona’s businesses while expanding opportunities to fund conservation of the state’s natural resources.
