The Wyoming Wildlife Federation (WWF), established in 1937 and with currently standing membership of approximately 5,000, is Wyoming’s oldest and largest statewide sportsmen/conservation organization. |
|||
Mission Statement: The Wyoming Wildlife Federation works for hunters, anglers, and other wildlife enthusiasts to protect and enhance habitat, to perpetuate quality hunting and fishing, to protect citizens' right to use public lands and waters, and to promote ethical hunting and fishing. |
|||
WWF is governed by a Board of Directors, including 12 associate directors who represent the membership at large, and a number of affiliate directors who represent WWF affiliate organizations. Affiliate directors sit as ex officio members. WWF is located in Cheyenne, WY and has offices in Laramie and Lander. |

WWF excels at organizing the traditional sportsmen community on current, relevant and important conservation issues. Recent WWF campaigns have included Sportsmen for the Wyoming Range, the Greater Little Mountain Coalition, and the development of both renewable (e.g., wind) and non-renewable energy (e.g., natural gas and oil shale) in important wildlife habitats in Wyoming. WWF has also been active in campaigns to maintain hunting and fishing access. WWF has consistently sought to maintain a moderate and principled position on contentious issues. They consistently lobby the Wyoming State Legislature on issues that affect wildlife in Wyoming. WWF members are also involved in numerous on-the-ground projects to improve wildlife habitat in Wyoming. |
|||
WWF is an affiliate of National Wildlife Federation (NWF), though they do not always agree with NWF on some issues. |
