Hunting preserves are intended to provide hunting enthusiasts with a safe, enjoyable and natural experience in a natural setting. Preserves are designed to make money. Many properties in this category are privately owned while some are not-for-profit. Both types offer hunters the same advantages, including a six months season, quality hunting, and wilderness refuge. Additionally, hunting preserves encourage environmental awareness and decrease land development.

A hunting preserve has a significant economic impact. These types of areas not only increase per-animal revenues but also offer services like mounting trophy meat and packaging it. Montana recently held a referendum that banned hunting preserves and game farms. This forced the closing of these businesses. This is a major step forward for the industry's future. But before a hunter can begin planning, he or she needs to consider how the preserve will make money.
