The decline of duck habitat and the continued loss of duck hunters are arguably the two greatest challenges facing our waterfowling heritage. Delta Waterfowl is working for you on both of these critical issues.
Delta is putting its resources where they’re needed most—on the breeding grounds. Research continues to confirm that the primary bottleneck for prairie ducks is nest success, hen survival and brood survival. These key factors must be addressed, and will be with your help. Large-scale losses of wetlands and upland nesting cover and run-away predation rates (on nests, hens and duck broods) are the factors most responsible for thinner fall flights. We can do better.
