 The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources, the Nature Conservancy, Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation and the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation have come together on a landscape scale voluntary conservation agreement. This historic conservation milestone will provide 54,636 acres of private land in eastern Kentucky to outdoor enthusiasts and provide a protected habitat for Kentucky's elk population. Kentucky has the largest elk herd in the U.S. east of the Rocky Mountains. It's a tremendous success story, the reintroduction of the elk to Kentucky, numbering over 10,000 animals now. So for us to have this property that we've protected within the elk zone, it allows partners such as the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, Nature Conservancy, to fund and implement habitat work on those lands to improve the quality of the habitat, not just for elk, but for deer, turkey, migratory songbirds. It'll have a lot of long-lasting benefits on these reclaimed coal lands, but it's just a big win for wildlife. So much more. If you can dream it, we can do it at J&M Custom. KDFWR will manage the acreage for wildlife habitat, public recreation, sustainable forestry and clean water. This project connects 274,000 acres of land stretching into Tennessee. The Appalachian Mountains are actually one of the most diverse landscapes in all of the world. It's phenomenal. And so to have the opportunity to protect some of that at this scale is really unique. This will be the largest conservation easement in Kentucky. And being able to ensure public access forever for all generations, that's just massive. No one's making any more land. We have what we have. So to be able to permanently lock that up for future use is just tremendous. I'm Brianna Robinson.
