Wildlife Partnership Program
South Dakota Game Fish and Parks recognize the need for quality wildlife habitats on private lands across South Dakota. Since the early 1980’s SDGFP has offered a number of cost share programs assisting private landowners develop upland game bird habitat. These habitat projects are aimed to increase nesting, escape, and severe winter cover on private lands. Currently, the Wildlife Partnership Program offers several cost share options for private landowners including:
- Dense Nesting Cover Establishment
- Warm Season Native Grass/Forb Establishment
- Woody Habitat Establishment
- Food Habitat Plots
- Habitat Fencing
- Learn more about how to develop your property for pheasants and other wildlife.
