About Us

Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation

The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation believes that Hunting Is Conservation. Early American leaders like Theodore Roosevelt shaped a set of ideals now known as the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation. They declared that wildlife belong to all of us. That every citizen is entitled to hunt and fish. And that science-based, state-regulated hunting would drive wildlife conservation and management. Today, the U.S. has the most successful system in the world. And no one does more to uphold it than hunters.

RMEF Houston Chapter

The Houston Chapter is in its 32nd year of operation and last year ranked #15 nationally with a total net revenue in excess of $125,000 from its Banquet. The Chapter also continues to rank among the top fifteen chapters in the nation for total net contribution to RMEF funding of in excess of $2.5 million dollars. Texas has a been a standout contributor to RMEF this past year with 2 chapters ranked in the top twenty-five. These funds have helped the RMEF to protect or enhance more than 7 million acres of wildlife habitat and reintroduce elk to historic ranges around the country.

Clearly, these goals could not have been achieved without the generous support of the Houston area RMEF members. The Houston Chapter ranks among the top fifteen chapters in the nation for its support of the mission.

These funds have helped the RMEF to protect or enhance vast tracts of land, reintroduce elk to historic ranges, and assure future generations of the opportunity to appreciate the noblest of North America’s big game species.

Please plan on joining us this year on May 4th for our 32nd fundraising banquet. This is a much more casual affair that is fun for the whole family.

Where We Conserve

Elk Country

Since 1984, the RMEF and its partners have conserved or enhanced more than 7.3 million acres of North America’s finest elk country. As a hunting community, we need to work together to protect and preserve for future generations.

How We Conserve

The RMEF permanently protects crucial elk winter and summer ranges, migration corridors, calving grounds and other vital areas, while focusing on securing and improving hunter access throughout elk country. Our land conservation tools include: acquisitions, access agreements and easements, conservation easements, land and real estate donations, land exchanges and associated acres.
