PARTNERS IN CONSERVATION
TD Friends of the Enviroment Foundation (TD FEF) and the Wild Elk Federation (WEF)have teamed up as "Partners in Conservation". Pictured is the WEF's first elk trailer that was funded by TD FEF. This is the first of three trailers the WEF hopes to aquire through funding requests to support the WEF's elk relocation program. The trailers, though owned by the WEF, will be made available to the conservation community as the need arises for similar wildlife relocation projects.
The WEF would like to thank TD Friends of the Enviroment Foundation for their gracious support.

BLOCKED ELK FIND NEW HOME
Local Group Involved in Alberta Elk ReleaseEighty-six elk were successfully relocated from Elk Island National Park to two release sites west of Rocky Mountain House on Wednesday March 7th.
The elk, originally slated for an elk reintroduction program to the state of Tennessee were blocked entry into the United States after entry documentation concerns by the USDA. Tennessee's loss became Alberta's gain thanks to the cooperative efforts of a dedicated group of wildlife managers and conservation minded volunteers from the Wild Elk Federation.
