Welcome to the home of the Utah Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation. Where we are working to ensure the future of elk, other wildlife and their habitat in Utah.
Our mission is to ensure the future of elk, other wildlife and their habitat. Since 1984 we have protected and enhanced more than 4.8 million acres of wildlife habitat all across elk country and funded more than 5.200 stewardship, conservation education and hunting heritage projects in 49 states and eight Canadian provinces. Along the way, we have helped open nearly half a million acres for public access and hunting. Support the Elk Foundation today because the future of elk country belongs to us all.
