Waterfowling Guide for Young Hunters
Developed by Ducks Unlimited Canada (DUC) in partnership with Ducks Unlimited Inc., this informative guide is designed to teach youth (age 12 and up) about conservation, the rich traditions of waterfowling and how to hunt waterfowl safely in an ethical and sustainable manner. This is a valuable resource for educators and mentors and helps young people to learn how waterfowling and conservation go hand in hand.
A great resource
This illustrated, 97-page book covers a wide variety of topics from safety, gear, skills and tactics to waterfowl biology, wildlife management and conservation. Young waterfowlers, under the guidance of experienced mentors, are encouraged to develop a set of personal ethics and traditions and a strong sense of conservation that they will pass on to their families and friends. The guide is available for $14.50 plus tax. Buy your copy today.
