• Elk, deer and antelope

• Mountain lions

• Badgers

• Raccoons

• Skunks

• Foxes

• Coyotes

• Ermines, mink and other weasels

• Woodchucks, muskrats and beavers

• Porcupines

• Cottontails and jack rabbits

• Rattlesnakes

• Sharp-tailed and blue grouse

• Sandhill cranes

• Canada geese and other waterfowl

• Smaller songbirds

We are honored that God has entrusted us with the responsibility of admiring and looking after these wild creatures.
