About this organization
Mission
The mission of the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation is to ensure the future of elk, other wildlife, their habitat and our hunting heritage. Our mission includes four core programs; land protection, habitat stewardship, elk restoration and hunting heritage.
About
Permanent land protection and access: Represents land acquisitions, conservation easements, land exchanges and donations, and hunter and public access related projects. RMEF identifies and prioritizes the most crucial elk winter and summer ranges, migration corridors, and calving areas using GIS mapping, a 100-point ranking system, partnerships, and field-based professional knowledge. The highest priority habitat or access areas are protected through acquisition or easement, and then usually conveyed to a government agency for management. Conservation easements allow landowners to protect their land in perpetuity from development and other uses that could diminish the habitat value. At the close of 2018, RMEF had permanently protected 1,244,260 cumulative acres of elk habitat, and opened or secured public access to 1,246,534 acres.
