Massive antlers are a product of age, genetics and habitat. Encouraging habitat stewardship and conservation is the goal of a 2009 Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation traveling exhibit of trophy-class elk.

Under Armour, the originator of performance apparel and gear engineered to keep athletes cool, dry and light, is strengthening its support of conservation with a new donation to the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation.

America's oldest and most prestigious North American conservation organization, the Boone and Crockett Club, which was founded in 1887 by Theodore Roosevelt, will be recognized during the January 8th Saturday Night Gala of the Dallas Safari Club 2009 convention as the recipient of the Peter Hathaway Capstick Hunting Heritage Award (PHCHHA).

When Theodore Roosevelt called the first White House conference on conservation in 1908, America craved wild game but many species were dwindling.

As America prepares to celebrate National Hunting and Fishing Day (September 27) and decades of conservation successes funded via sporting licenses and excise taxes, new data show that groups like the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation are increasingly important financiers of fish, wildlife and habitat programs.

The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation has allocated $57,191 for a research project to identify elk habitat preferences, movement patterns and demographics in the Glass Mountains of west Texas.
