Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation offers support to Landowners facing gopher overpopulation

06 25 25 SARM SWF NR Support For Gopher Overpopulation

SASKATCHEWAN WILDLIFE FEDERATION OFFERS SUPPORT TO LANDOWNERS FACING GOPHER
OVERPOPULATION
June 25, 2025 – With escalating gopher populations causing increasing concern for landowners
across Saskatchewan, the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation (SWF), with the support of the
Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities (SARM), is stepping up to offer practical
assistance.
Gophers are a significant cause of crop loss and land degradation, impacting the livelihood of
Saskatchewan producers and landowners. In response, the SWF is connecting landowners with
trusted SWF members who are ready to assist in controlling gopher numbers in a responsible
and ethical manner.
Landowners experiencing challenges with gophers are encouraged to contact the SWF Office at
306-692-8812. The SWF will then work to identify available SWF members in that area to
coordinate arrangements directly with the landowner.
All SWF members participating in this initiative carry an additional $5 million in liability
coverage, and are expected to uphold the highest standards of safety, conduct, and landowner
respect.
“We recognize the growing frustration gophers are causing in rural areas, particularly as they
damage crops and create hazards for livestock,” said Darrell Crabbe, SWF Executive Director.
“We’re proud to support our members in being part of the solution—helping our landowners
while maintaining ethical hunting practices.”
For more information or to request support, please contact the Saskatchewan Wildlife
Federation at 306-692-8812.
