Putting Money Back on Canadian Soil

As the organization grows, so has the Wild Elk Federation's ability to enhance habitat, acquire and protect critical wildlife range, fund wildlife research and support wildlife conservation education programs.

With its solid reputation of putting money back on Canadian ground, Wild Elk Federation has gained the respect of government agencies, corporations and the general public. We owe a great deal of gratitude to our ardent corps of partners, whose tireless efforts have laid the groundwork for ensuring the future for elk habitat in North America.

Land acquisitions and conservation easements ensure long term protection of critical habitat. Potential conservation lands are identified in discussion with wildlife management agencies for their significance as critical winter range, calving grounds, important migration corridors or related values as wildlife habitat for a variety of species. Proposed acquisitions are then reviewed and if appropriate approved by the Wild Elk Foundation's volunteer board of directors.

The Wild Elk Federation fosters cooperation and dialogue through private/public partnerships with resource users and management agencies. We work closely with private timber companies to improve wildlife values on their forest lands. We also partner with the coal industry in an effort to protect lands reclaimed for wildlife and the wildlife that's flourished on these mine sites. The Elk Federation has met on numerous occasions with government wildlife and forest managers. The results of these working relationships has provided land and wildlife managers with new reasons for optimism amidst the sometimes stormy resource battles that surround them.

A number of the Wild Elk Federation's habitat enhancement projects will involve prescribed burns or mechanical clearing which rejuvenate decadent vegetation and thus greatly boost forage values for wildlife.
