MAIN Lacrosse Mossy Oak NWTF Partnership

LaCrosse Footwear and Mossy Oak are proud to announce their partnership with the National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF). The joint partnership results from the two companies coming together in the name of conservation to benefit the NWTF's Save The Habitat, Save The Hunt campaign.

In 1973, when the United States had only an estimated 1.3 million turkeys, the NWTF was founded. After decades of hard work from NWTF volunteers, the U.S.A population of wild turkeys stands at nearly seven-million birds today. Their work for the wild turkey is not finished. Over the next 10 years, the NWTF aims to protect four million acres of wildlife habitat across the United States. In addition, the NWTF is working to recruit upwards of 1.5 million new hunters, which will increase funding for wildlife conservation. Plus, it will help open access to 500,000 additional acres for hunting over the next decade.

The LaCrosse Venom, Venom II, and the Alpha Agility Snake Boots are designed for the turkey hunter. However, the wild turkeys were in mind with LaCrosse's new design. With the new partnership between Mossy Oak, LaCrosse, and the NWTF, a portion of every LaCrosse X NWTF collection purchase goes back to the NWTF to support its mission further-

Each boot features Mossy Oak Obsession, which is the official camouflage of the NWTF. It is also a pattern recognized as a symbol of Mossy Oak's continued passion for the wild turkey and the NWTF's conservation efforts. That passion is why Mossy Oak is proud to partner with a company like LaCrosse that shares the same passion and wants to give back to wild turkey conservation.

“Turkey hunters have been wearing LaCrosse boots to the spring woods for many years, and now there’s an added bonus of supporting the conservation of the wild turkey,” said Chris Paradise, chief sales officer for Mossy Oak. “It’s encouraging to see these conservation partnerships growing, and they are necessary to truly save the hunt we deeply love. We’re honored to join LaCrosse and the NWTF for these efforts in wild turkey conservation.”

Will Grizzly Bear Management be Returned to the States?

When the grizzly bear in the Lower 48 was given Endangered Species Act (ESA) protection as a threatened species in 1975, it was supposed to be a temporary protection that would be lifted once populations met or exceeded specific goals. Now more than a half century later and with grizzly populations that have spread and met or far surpassed the goals set in 1975.

USFWS Proposes New Grizzly Bear Management Rule

On July 17 the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) published a proposed rulemaking change on the Federal Register that, if approved, would allow western states to better manage their grizzly bear population. Despite their burgeoning population the big bruins remain on the “endangered” list under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), a fact that has paralyzed regional conservation efforts, impacted other wildlife populations and dramatically increased human/bear conflicts.
