This ranch has been intensely managed exclusively for wildlife for the past 7 years. The ranch has 6 whitetail breeder pens, and numerous deer out of 200+ genetics have been released to supplement the native deer herd. In the winter months, the waterfowl lakes are home to incredible numbers of ducks, geese, and sandhill cranes. There are large numbers of turkey that roost along the timber lined creek drainages on this ranch. Last year, a gobbler was killed that had an 11.5 inch beard. The owner has conducted controlled burns every winter for the past 7 years, increasing the native grasses and forbes. Annual predator control is also part of the wildlife management plan. The ranch currently holds a level III MLD.
