History/Purpose of Acquisition: The Wildlife Conservation Board has acquired land in three phases for the creation of the San Felipe Valley Wildlife Area. Funding sources have been Proposition 70 (Wildlife and Natural Areas Conservation Program of 1988), Proposition 117 (Habitat Conservation Fund/ Mountain Lion Initiative) and from Proposition 12 (Parks Bond Act of 2000). The purpose of acquisitions includes critical deer migration corridor and deer fawning habitat and oak woodland and riparian habitat protection.
Large acquisitions adjacent to the existing wildlife area in 2003-04 increased the area by over 5,000 acres to the northwest and 7,500 acres to the southeast. Management activities are on-going throughout the wildlife area to ensure public safety, compatible wildlife-dependant public recreation and adequate resource conservation.
