    U.S. Army Yuma Proving Ground's environmental stewardship efforts have earned plaudits from within the Army and from agencies like the Arizona Department of Game and Fish. YPG officials are quick to note that the success of the installation’s wildlife management program is in large part thanks to the steadfast support of area hunters and sportsmen.

    “We get so much support from groups like the Yuma Rod and Gun Club and Arizona Bighorn Sheep Society for construction of wildlife water catchments and monitoring animal populations,” said Daniel Steward, YPG wildlife biologist. “A lot of these things rely on volunteer labor to accomplish, and it is our sportsmen who reliably help get these projects done.”
