What is 1-D-1 Wildlife Management?

The 1-D-1 Wildlife Management tax valuation allows Texas landowners to maintain low property taxes by managing their land for native wildlife instead of traditional agriculture. Passed in 1995 under Proposition 11, this program helps preserve open spaces while providing significant tax savings.

Big Sky Wildlife specializes in helping landowners transition from agricultural exemptions to wildlife management valuation. We handle everything from initial planning and county applications to annual compliance reporting—allowing you to enjoy your property while maintaining your tax benefits.
