WILDLIFE HABITAT FEDERATION {CAT SPRING, TEXAS}

The Wildlife Habitat Federation (WHF) was formed in 2004 to bring together the best specialists and techniques for restoring and preserving wildlife in South Central Texas. Landowners want more wildlife but in many cases are unaware of the expertise, programs and information available to them. They may also wish to understand or actually be shown the economic benefits of having more wildlife and how this can be incorporated into their present operations.

Audubon Texas encouraged the formation of WHF by designating our region as a priority zone and by assigning a biologist to assist through its Quail Conservation Initiative. Improving habitat for quail becomes the common denominator for improving wildlife generally because better quail habitat benefits virtually all indigenous game species, including, but not limited to, dove, deer, wild turkey, songbirds and rabbits.

WHF’s aim is to provide individuals and wildlife associations or cooperatives with the right facts on how, when and where to plan and implement wildlife restoration programs. WHF’s specific objectives are 1) to restore and enhance contiguous tracts and corridors of native habitat in the Lower Colorado River Basin and adjacent areas and 2) to provide educational opportunities to assist landowners in optimizing productive use of their resources while significantly enhancing habitat.

Working Together to Save Our Prairie

The coastal prairie of Texas and Louisiana (also known as Gulf Coast Prairie or Cajun prairie in Louisiana) is one of the most imperiled ecosystems in the U.S.

Coastal Prairie Partnership (CPP) is a grass-roots coalition comprised of local, state, federal, and non-profit institutions, private landowners, individuals, businesses, and educators working to achieve common prairie conservation, restoration, and educational goals.

Each Fall CPP hosts the annual State of the Prairie Conference

Here is the latest update of our seed collecting activities.  Please join us to collect seeds and at the same time experience the prairie.  We are a collaborative venture with the goal to increase the amount and variety of coastal prairie plant materials including seeds.  

We are in the midst of a two year, intensive seed collecting effort to provide seeds for urban pocket plantings, volunteer grow outs, and most importantly provide source material for seed production at a large scale.
