Conservation

Boots on the Ground.

Based in Science.


OHA is dedicated to conserving Oregon’s wildlife and habitat. For over four decades, our members have rolled up their sleeves to steward critical habitat, support science-based management, increase hunting opportunity, and improve management of wildlife for future generations.


Our commitment to conservation has been there since the day of our founding and remains front and center of the bulk of the work we do on behalf of Oregon hunters.


Conservation is at the heart of everything OHA does.

Through habitat restoration, wildlife stewardship, advocacy, and on-the-ground volunteer projects, we work to ensure Oregon’s fish and wildlife populations remain healthy for generations to come.


By protecting and enhancing habitat, supporting sound wildlife management, and giving hunters a voice in conservation decisions, OHA helps safeguard the future of Oregon’s wildlife, wild places, and hunting heritage.
