Conservation & Education

Through restoration projects and conservation education programs, the Foundation encourages the following:

• Understanding the value of Idaho’s fish and wildlife resources.

• Appreciation of the complexities of wildlife management and habitat preservation that are essential to sustaining Idaho’s fish and wildlife resources.

• Enjoyment of Idaho’s great outdoors through a variety of resource-related activities that comprise our wildlife heritage: hunting, fishing, trapping, hiking, boating, wildlife watching, and other wildlife-based recreation opportunities.

Projects funded by the Foundation can be found in the seven regional areas of Idaho: the Panhandle, Clearwater, Southwest, Magic Valley, Southeast, Upper Snake, and Salmon regions.  Click on Funded Projects to learn more.

Every Idaho resident or visitor—whether a sportsman, a dedicated or occasional wildlife-watcher, or a solitude-seeker—has the unique opportunity to play a vital role in preserving Idaho’s wildlife heritage.  You, too, can support an important project with a tax deductible contribution.  Visit SUPPORT A PROJECT! to learn more.
