Pheasants Forever Calgary

Pheasants Forever Calgary is dedicated to the conservation of pheasants and other wildlife by restoring and enhancing the upland wildlife landscape.

We protect habitat by helping to secure it:

We partner with a number of other conservation organizations and private individuals to acquire parcels of land suitable for habitat enhancement and restoration. It is important that these sites have public access and will benefit upland wildlife especially pheasants.

We enhance and restore upland habitat for pheasants by:

-Planting quality nesting cover, trees, shrubs and grasses to create shelterbelts and protective cover
-Establishing winter food plots and emergency feeding stations
-Restoring wetlands
-Installing fencing to keep cattle from overgrazing established shelterbelts and riparian areas
-Developing off-site watering units for cattle
-Installing drip irrigation systems
-Installing turnouts on underground irrigation projects

We engage, educate and build relationships with stakeholders throughout Alberta to influence the long-term protection of pheasant habitat.

We support youth education programs that encourage and instill conservation ethics, responsible sportsmanship and an appreciation for wildlife.
