Built By People Who'd Rather Be Outside
Wildlife Essentials was created for hunters, landowners and wildlife enthusiasts who think checking a trail camera counts as productive work.
We build products around the things we already care about: hunting, wildlife, land management, better food plots and spending more time outdoors.
Our Team.
Behind Wildlife Essentials is a team that brings different skills, experiences, and perspectives to the table—but we’re all working toward the same thing: creating practical products for people who spend their time outdoors. From the field to the office, we’re hands-on, close to the process, and always looking for ways to make what we offer even better

Marketing & Brand Development
Robert brings the hunter’s perspective to Wildlife Essentials. He puts products to work in real hunting situations, watches how deer respond, and helps determine what earns a spot in the lineup.
If it doesn’t make sense in the woods, Robert is probably going to say so.
Brannon is the guy behind the blends. He develops new flavor ideas, experiments with combinations, and handles the mixing that turns plain corn into Wildlife Essentials corn.
If a new flavor sounds just crazy enough to work, there’s a good chance Brannon came up with it.
Ashlee handles the Wildlife Essentials brand—from the website and social media to product launches, graphics, and everything in between.
She takes what happens behind the scenes and turns it into something hunters actually want to stop, look at, and learn more about.

Bucky
Chief Product Testing Officer
His job is simple: remind Brannon when the feeder is empty. His methods include showing up on camera, staring directly into the lens, and looking personally offended by the lack of snacks.
Attendance is excellent. Boundaries are not.
After years of loyal service, regular feeder visits, and extensive product testing, he officially retired from Wildlife Essentials following one very successful hunting season.
His contributions to the program will not be forgotten.
Nothing makes it into the Wildlife Essentials lineup without approval from the real experts. Our Quality Control team handles taste testing, repeat visits, and the occasional all-night product review.
They don’t submit reports—we just check the trail camera.
