Private Landowner Assistance Districts
Did you know that Oklahoma is over 95% privately owned? With that, successful wildlife habitat management requires action by private landowners. Managing and enhancing habitat for wildlife can be a challenging task. With it can also arise many questions.
Hundreds of landowners have received help in past years from this dedicated team. Large or small, each property is given a thorough evaluation to classify habitat types, rank habitat conditions, and identify needs. Landowner goals are the key, and each biologist develops a management plan tailored to meet those goals.
In addition, cost-share opportunities are often available, and biologists are eager to help landowners find a funding program that may work for them. Whether the goal is to enhance habitat for game species or nongame, ODWC’s Private Land staff is ready to take your call today.
