SUMMARY:Carrol L. Henderson - A National Legacy: Fifty Years of Nongame Wildlife Conservation in Minnesota
DESCRIPTION:** Co-Sponsored with Land of Lakes Bird Alliance ** \n** In-Person Only – Registration Required (link to follow) ** \nA National Legacy: Fifty Years of Nongame Wildlife Conservation in Minnesota. \nMr. Henderson will speak about his book “A National Legacy\,” which captures the spirit and innovation behind the dedication required to drive lasting change in wildlife conservation. It highlights the significant and historic transition by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources from a focus on managing game species for hunters’ benefit to a broader ecological approach\, marked by the creation of the Nongame Wildlife Program in 1977. This progressive Minnesota program\, driven mainly by Carrol L. Henderson\, became a national model for other states to develop their own nongame wildlife programs. \nCarrol Henderson graduated from Iowa State University\, majoring in zoology with minors in botany and physics. In 1968\, he attended graduate school at the University of Georgia and studied under Dr. Eugene P. Odum\, who authored the textbook\, Principles of Ecology. During graduate school\, he focused on ecology\, forestry\, wildlife management\, and also studied feature writing\, public speaking\, and public relations. He also studied in Costa Rica. Over the years\, his wildlife interests began with taxidermy and hunting waterfowl\, pheasants\, grouse\, woodcock\, and deer. Henderson’s interests have expanded to birding\, nature photography\, gardening for wildlife\, bird watching\, feeding\, and leading international birding tours. He and his wife Ethelle live in Blaine\, Minnesota.
