Mentored Youth Hunts
DUC began over 70 years ago through the vision and leadership of waterfowlers concerned about the loss of wetland and upland habitats and the impact of this loss on waterfowl populations. While many of us still hunt waterfowl, the number of Canadian waterfowl hunters has been in decline.
In an effort to support young waterfowlers and to ensure that future generations do not lose that connection to our rich waterfowling heritage, DUC, along with our partners, delivers information and programs that teach youth about conservation and becoming a good waterfowl hunter. We want new, young hunters to learn and enjoy the waterfowling tradition, and at the same time increase the number of responsible, conservation-minded hunters.
To that end, we are pleased to suggest some great resources that will help introduce our young people to waterfowling.
