To say that private landowners have a major impact on wildlife habitat in the state of Oklahoma is certainly an understatement. Because approximately 97 percent of the land in the state is owned by private individuals, the land practices they choose are vital in conserving habitat and wildlife resources.

The Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation is working to provide landowners the information they need to make wise land management decisions through the “Your Side of the Fence” landowner newsletter.

“Hopefully, this newsletter will be a great resource for landowners who have an eye on the bottom line, but also realize the importance of conserving wildlife on their property,” said John Hendrix, private lands biologist for the Department.

Each issue of “Your Side of the Fence” is packed with informative articles covering issues that are important to landowners, from the latest farm bill news, to pond management for fishing to controlling invasive range species. The best part is that is absolutely free.

The newsletter is produced three times a year and previous issues can be seen by logging on to the Department’s Web site at www.wildlifedepartment.com/landownernews.htm
