Virginia Wildlife Corridors and Crossings Project: A Conservation Photography Project

According to State Farm, Virginia is a high-risk state for animal vehicle collisions. In Virginia, there is a 1 in 78 chance that a animal collision claim is filed. Virginia legislature has implemented first-ever Wildlife Corridor Action Plan in Virginia.

In 2024 SB 455 established the Virginia Wildlife Corridor Grant Fund to provide grants for projects that help to enhance wildlife corridors and to help with wildlife crossing infrastructure projects that were under the Virginia Wildlife Corridor Action Plan.

However, the funding was not in the 2024 state budget. So, we need Virginia citizens to contact their local representative to advocate for the funding needed to be included in the next state budget.
