Wild Livelihoods Business Coalition
Business-Powered Conservation
To become the standard for how rural gateway communities protect natural resources, sustain local livelihoods, and balance growth with the integrity of the wild lands.
"The Land Works for Us—So We Invest in the Land"
Wild Livelihoods strengthens the northern Greater Yellowstone economy by investing directly in the natural resources that sustain it. Tourism is the dominant economy here, generating $1.3B annually to our local businesses. Wildlife watching is the #1 activity. We make it easier for local businesses to voluntarily fund conservation, support responsible recreation, elevate community values, and advance policies that keep wildlife, working lands, and rural communities healthy. We honor fair-chase, leave-no-trace, and the responsibility to pass on a healthier landscape to future generations. By partnering with ranchers, agencies, and gateway communities, and by advocating for public-land decisions that reflect the importance of our tourism economy, we work to keep the northern Greater Yellowstone wild, productive, and resilient for generations to come.

Our member businesses are committed to helping visitors responsibly experience the same sense of wonder, amazement and gratitude that we do from this very special place. Yellowstone National Park’s northern gateway possess abundant natural beauty and countless opportunities to experience an area with abundant wildlife and wild landscapes.
