“This year our cameras follow a host of new characters for adventures in elk country, including some awesome hunts on lands conserved by RMEF,” said Steve Decker, vice president of marketing for RMEF. “Throughout Season 2 we’ll demonstrate, and our season finale will punctuate, how North American hunters continue to lead the world’s most successful model of conservation.”
 
“RMEF Team Elk” is named for the force of RMEF members—now a record 184,135 strong and growing—fueling the organization’s conservation efforts. Hunters from celebrities to military heroes to salt-of-the-earth folks are working together to conserve habitat, restore elk herds to native ranges and celebrate America’s sporting heritage.
