Pheasants Forever’s First Biologist

Jim Wooley was Pheasants Forever’s third full-time employee and first wildlife biologist. Jim shares the story of his career in conservation and the role he played decades ago in the growing the Habitat Organization from the ground up. Jim explains why he took a risk and accepted the job, how fast PF grew, why the mission worked then and still does today, and why every one of us leads to success. Jim and Travis also discuss how land acquisition works, why PF doesn’t outbid farmers to buy land, the changing landscape over the past 60 years, surrounding yourself with good people, habitat loss fatigue, celebrating wins, and so much more. @pheasantsforever
