Wildlife Habitat Incentive Program (WHIP)

The Wildlife Habitat Incentive Program (WHIP) is a U.S. federal initiative designed to encourage landowners to enhance and maintain habitats for wildlife on their property. It provides financial assistance and technical support for projects that improve ecosystems, such as planting native vegetation, creating ponds, or managing forests. By participating in WHIP, landowners can help protect biodiversity and promote healthy wildlife populations while potentially increasing the ecological value of their land. The program is part of broader efforts to conserve natural resources and support sustainable land use practices.
