ABOUT US
Thanking You

Because of the support we receive from good friends such as you, the Wildlife Land Trust has become increasingly effective in preserving permanent wildlife sanctuaries and protecting wild animals from human-caused violence. Since 1993 the Trust, alone or in partnership with other conservation groups, has participated in the protection of more than 1.8 million acres of wildlife habitat in 35 states and seven foreign countries. On all properties owned by the Trust or protected by the Trust's conservation easement, we prohibit recreational and commercial hunting and trapping and restrict logging and development. The Trust’s commitment to these principles will never change as we continue to assist caring landowners to make their property permanent, safe homes for wildlife.

Increased involvement in protecting wildlife habitat to more than 1,800,000 acres.

Increased the number of states where we are actively protecting habitat to 35.

Continued to increase our program breadth with protection in the Amazonian rainforest and natural areas in Guatemala.

Contributed to the effort to reduce global climate change by sequestering approximately 3.5 million tons of CO2 on WLT-involved properties.

Permanently protected migratory corridors and critical gateway habitat for wild salmon, mountain lion, lynx, bear, moose and multitudes of small animals and birds. This is a long-term initiative.
