Ninety-eight percent of the purchase price goes directly to help acquire and protect wetland habitat and purchase conservation easements for the National Wildlife Refuge System.

PUBLIC-LAND HUNTERS DOING THEIR PART |
Public-land hunters have been doing a good job so far of following new mask- and social-distancing rules at check stations this season. As Covid cases increase, it will be especially important to continue adhering to these rules, both for the safety of fellow hunters and refuge staff, and to ensure that check stations can continue to operate during these times. Keep up the good work!
If you haven't hunted the refuges yet, you can check out any refuge-specific Covid rules by going to their websites.
