Wildlife and Habitat Management Ireland
Practical, landowner-focused support across all ecosystems and land types.
Ecoplan Forestry – Trusted Since 2007
At Ecoplan, we’ve always believed that managing land responsibly means managing more than just the trees. Whether it’s a mature woodland, a new plantation, a farm holding, or a private estate, the surrounding habitats, wildlife, and biodiversity are a central part of the picture — not an afterthought. And it’s not all about just fur and feathers either.
Since 2007, Ecoplan has worked alongside ecologists, landowners, contractors, and public bodies — including the NPWS — to design and deliver effective, practical wildlife and habitat solutions. From bees to giant Redwoods, tailored deer management to creating nesting habitats, we specialise in putting plans into action, not just writing them, and we have the awards to prove it.
Our Role
We coordinate and manage wildlife projects on behalf of landowners and managers. We know exactly who to call and how to get the job done properly. Think of Ecoplan as your project partner — advising you, assembling the right team, and managing the whole process end-to-end. And that’s the difference – we actually get the job done, and make sure it works.
Real-Time Wildlife Monitoring
Our Approach
Wildlife management means different things to different people. For some, it’s about protecting rare species. For others, it’s about controlling deer or managing invasive vegetation. At Ecoplan, our role is to make sure it all comes together and gets done properly.
We’re not just plan-writers. We’re implementers. Coordinators.
We listen to what the landowner wants, assess what’s needed, and bring in the right experts and specialists to deliver the work. We know exactly who to call and how to get the job done properly. Think of Ecoplan as your project partner — advising you, assembling the right team, and managing the whole process end-to-end.
Invasive Species Clearance
Our Services
We offer a wide range of wildlife-related services, tailored to woodland environments, and here are just some examples:
- Wildlife and Habitat Surveys
- Habitat Management Plans
- Deer Management Plans
- Nest/Roost Box Installation
- Habitat Protection and Creation
- Wildlife-friendly Fencing and Access Solutions
- Invasive Species Control
- Long-term Monitoring and Reporting
Every project is unique — some are driven by grant or compliance needs, others by a desire to enhance or protect biodiversity. Urgent issues such as invasive species, or the rapidy increasing deer population, cannot just be ingnored any longer, but have to be addressed and managed scientifically, systematically, and professionally.
We make it simple. You explain the problem — we deliver the solution.
Why It Matters
Wildlife and habitat management is about understanding, protecting, and enhancing the natural systems that make your land special. Whether it’s preserving native species, restoring degraded habitats, or managing the balance between wildlife and woodland, good stewardship starts with expertise. At Ecoplan, we work with trusted ecologists and specialists to create practical solutions that put ecology first — and still meet broader land management goals.
Working With Ecoplan
We only take on projects where we know we can make a meaningful difference. If you’re looking for a low-effort tick-box report, we’re probably not the right fit. But if you want a real result — something that benefits your land, the wildlife, and the wider environment — we’d be happy to help. Our goal is to provide practical, achievable wildlife solutions that fit your site, your needs, and your budget. And you can read about our E.U. level success with The Birr Castle Bee Project.
