Management Considerations for Private Lands

The North Dakota Game and Fish Department and the Natural Resources Conservation Service, and other partners, provide technical and financial assistance to private landowners to develop wildlife habitat on private land. To see how conducive your property is for providing for wildlife, access the Wildlife Habitat Evaluation Guide at http://efotg.nrcs.usda.gov/references/public/ND/Wildlife_Habitat_evaluation_ guide.xls, or contact a Game and Fish Department private land biologist in your area. Also available are individual species habitat guides at http://www.whmi.nrcs.usda.gov/technical/leaflet.htm. These provide information about specific wildlife species and their life history requirements, enabling private landowners to better understand their needs.
