The Wildlife Department's WMA Shooting Ranges are a significant contribution to wildlife conservation, funded by excise taxes from sporting arms and ammunition purchases. These funds are used for wildlife conservation efforts across the states. The department has been expanding its facilities to meet the growing demand for recreational shooting spaces, with recent additions at Packsaddle WMA in Ellis County and Kaw WMA in Kay County. These ranges offer a variety of shooting experiences in support of conservation and recreational shooting.
