Abstract
As the West continues to grow in popularity as a place to live and to recreate, the importance of conserving natural resources cannot be overstated. In every effort to conserve the wests iconic natural resources, private landowners must play a pivotal role. However, private landowners are facing a number of threats, making it difficult to continue livelihoods based on the land. Fortunately, there are a number of tools available to landowners which can reduce the threats to their livelihood by making land more affordable, or compensating landowners for taking care of wildlife habitat, which everyone gets to enjoy. With the number of tools available to landowners, it can seem overwhelming to try and narrow down which tools may be relevant. Here, we attempt to highlight some of the tools available to which may be of broad interest to western landowners.
