First Annual Golf For Wildlife – A Success!

Thanks to the hard work of our good friends at Muley Fanatic Foundation, passionate golfers and outstanding sponsors the first annual Golf For Wildlife Outing on July 31,2021 was deemed a smashing success. Each and every year we plan on partnering with our good friends at Muley Fanatic Foundation to raise funds for a critical wildlife project in Wyoming. This year, we raised funds for the important I-25 Kaycee to Buffalo Wildlife Crossing Project.

This stretch of roadway is the second deadliest in the entire state for wildlife, mainly mule deer! This cost effective project will include building 17 miles of exclusionary fencing on each side of the interstate to funnel wildlife to existing agriculture underpasses. The project is now under design by the Wyoming Department of Transportation and we hope that this project is under construction by next spring. Keep an eye out for this development!

The wildlife of Wyoming help support thousands of jobs and small businesses. It is also a very important part of our heritage and traditions. Golf For Wildlife has clearly shown what can be done to help our wildlife when we come together with passion and purpose. We are happy to report that Golf For Wildlife raised $7,028.78 all of which will be headed to the I-25 project. We will also route this money through the Wyoming Wildlife and Natural Resource Trust for a 1:1 match which will mean over $14,000 will be headed to the project thanks to your generous gifts!

We value your partnership and belief in these efforts. Thank you for believing in Wyoming’s wildlife.

Stay tuned for info regarding the 2022 Golf For Wildlife Outing!

Best Regards,

Chris McBarnes
President

The My Wild Land showing in Sheridan on Wednesday The My Wild Land showing in Sheridan on Wednesday evening was a huge success! A big thank you to @sheridanclt and @tnc_wyoming for their partnership in making this event possible. Wildlife conservation in Wyoming is truly a dynamic team effort. Wyoming's ranchers who keep working lands; 'working', are truly all-stars who do so much for the wildlife we love.

My Wild Land is presented by @muleyfanaticfoundation with support from @mavenbuilt

We are thankful for your support. From our family We are thankful for your support. From our family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving.
Where feasible and appropriate, highway underpasse Where feasible and appropriate, highway underpasses and overpasses, coupled with game fencing, can be highly effective at reducing wildlife-vehicle collisions and ensuring that animals can safely and freely cross roads. Underpasses and overpasses in Wyoming and elsewhere in the west have been demonstrated to consistently reduce collisions by 80-90% and connect habitat for wildlife.

With your help, The WYldlife Fund will continue to advocate for and help fund these critical projects.
