ABOUT THE WILDLIFE HERITAGE TRUST ACCOUNT

The Wildlife Heritage Trust is administered by the Board of Wildlife Commissioners. The money in the account must be used for the ‘protection, propogation, restoration, transplantation, introduction, and management of any game fish, game mammal, game bird, or fur-bearing mammal in this state."

The funds are obtained from bid, auction or partnership in wildlife drawings or from a gift of money made by any person to the Wildlife Heritage Trust Account.

Wildlife Heritage Trust Account Projects


The table below displays the organizations that were awarded Wildlife Heritage tags to auction at their fundraising events. The auctioned tags benefit the Wildlife Heritage Trust Account, and the interest generated from these funds will be used each year for special projects benefiting game species. The account will one day become a stable, long-term source of revenue for game management.

You may also be interested in learning about our Partnership in Wildlife (PIW) program. PIW is a voluntary and optional participation program that offers unique hunting opportunities to hunters for a few statewide big game tags.
