EDUCATION at Wildlife Forever
... a Visionary Leader in Conservation Education
STATE-FISH ART™ ®
Wildlife Forever's STATE-FISH ART Contest is celebrating its 14th year as an amazingly successful conservation education program combining art to catch the imagination of students and science to foster discovery of the natural world ... increasing awareness of and respect for aquatic resources. STATE-FISH ART has two primary components: 1) The comprehensive State-Fish Art Lesson Plan, FISH ON! for students in grades K-12. The full lesson plan is available free online. 2) A national art contest which serves as an outreach initiative and showcase for youth in the arts. Upon completion of the lesson plan students will have gained an understanding of a fish’s anatomy, behavior, and habitat needs, as well as an increased appreciation of the arts.
Invasive Species Threat Campaign Whether you are a wildlife watcher, camper, hiker or you like to hunt and fish, your favorite outdoor past-time is being threatened. Invasive/non-native species are destroying the habitat and food sources of America's fish and wildlife. Wildlife Forever is a national leader in the fight against invasive species with the Threat Campaign. The public is the first line of defense in stopping the spread of invasive species on land and in the water. Wildlife Forever's Threat Campaign is an efficient and effective public awareness and education outreach effort designed to enlist the support of the public and encourage them to take action.

- The profile also includes a segment titled "Did You Know" highlighting interesting facts such as speed, defense mechanisms, population trends and status.
- Each Critter Book covers 50 species found in a particular state. some of more fun species you'll find are: bobcat, chipmunk, elk, fox, mink, moose, red-tailed hawk, American coot and bald eagle.
- In addition to the 50 species profiles, Critters pocket guides contain space to record and list dates, times, places as well as notes when species are sighted; an eight page glossary of wildlife terms; and a ruler along the back cover to measure length and width of wildlife tracks.
The easy-to-use, hands-on format of the guide fosters an interest in wild things and wild places, resulting in greater awareness and appreciation of wildlife in urban, suburban, and rural areas alike.
Key innovation: A particular strength of the Critters Pocket Guide Series is how it educates entire families and communities through conservation education. As students use their new Critters pocket guides in their backyard or on family trips, they share their enthusiasm, impacting more individuals with the message of conservation. |
