Beartooth Capital is a leading impact investment fund manager whose mission is to generate strong investment returns, real conservation results and community benefits. They partner with leading conservation and community groups to search the inefficient ranch market in the western United States for important but undervalued ranches with substantial potential for value creation and conservation benefits.
Conservation and community benefits are at the core of our investment model. Joining the B Corp community helps us document the impact of our work and guides us to find ways to have an even greater impact.
Beartooth Capital’s Fund I currently manages approximately 19,000 acres in five western states. They have protected more than 11,000 acres, restored more than 35 miles of creek and river and with their partners, created three new parks providing public access to recreation areas. Their work has had other important impacts as well. They have rehabilitated thousands of acres of pasture and hundreds of acres of productive farmland. They have modified management of water rights to keep large amounts of water in-stream, improving fisheries and spawning areas for important species such as steelhead and wild Chinook salmon in communities where recreation and tourism play a large part in the local economy.

The Change We Seek®
Beartooth Capital is at the forefront of creating a conservation finance marketplace – offering a means for investors to align their investments with risk-appropriate investment opportunities in conservation. Their demonstrated commitment to restoration, conservation and community collaboration enables them to better implement their strategy to create value, mitigate risk and provides them with a competitive advantage.
