The NWTF is celebrating its conservation milestones during its Conservation Week that began Sunday and extends through the 25th. Throughout the week, the NWTF will showcase its conservation efforts across the country through the lens of its America’s Big Six of Wildlife Conservation, while also encouraging others to get involved in the greater conservation story by getting outdoors, buying a license and leaving the land better than they found it.
