The Living Land: Focusing on Habitat

Chris Lee, operations manager for Des Moines County Conservation, writes “The Living Land” column twice a month for the The Hawkeye, Iowa’s oldest newspaper. In his most recent column, he gives his take on “focus areas,” which is NBCI’s strategy for rangewide restoration of huntable populations of bobwhites.

“Just as technology progresses, so must our approaches to wildlife management. Today, that new approach is using “focus areas” to build concentrated, connected areas of habitat spanning a large area of land,” Chris writes.
