Wildlife: A Legacy Worth PreservingIt was abundant wildlife that brought the first trappers to this remote corner of Wyoming and an abundant diversity of wildlife still draws people here today.Along with being home to a small but thriving group of grizzlies, the Little Jackson Fork Valley provides sanctuary for cougars, lynx, black bear and fox. The recently reintroduced gray wolf is starting to stake its claim to the area adding a natural tension to rival prey as well as a challenge to the bison that flourish at the ranch. Like the larger Jackson Valley to the north, the Little Jackson Fork Valley is also home to large herds of elk every winter where they come to forage through the shallower snows. |

Spring brings thousands of songbirds and a revived raptor population to the valley along with the largest pronghorn migration in the world from Yellowstone to the Green River Valley below. In addition to supporting the exclusive Wyoming Cutt-Slam program to protect our native cutthroat trout, The Lodge at Jackson Fork Ranch is dedicated to preserving our rich natural environment and protecting the wildlife that have called this paradise home. Hiking and riding through the areas surrounding The Lodge offers excellent opportunities to come into contact with any number of the many species found here. If you’d like, we can arrange to have one of our naturalists give you a naturalist tour while you’re here. “Only nature does great things for nothing.” – Anonymous
