The North Dakota Game and Fish Department will unveil new wildlife education projects to current and prospective volunteers during training sessions held around the state beginning Feb. 26. The Two training courses to be covered are "Birds of North Dakota" and "Wildlife of North Dakota."
"Birds of North Dakota" is a slide presentation focusing on the habitats in which North Dakota bird species live, and the importance of those habitats to all wildlife species. "Wildlife of North Dakota" incorporates a box of hands-on wildlife materials and color images, focusing on habitats and adaptations of North Dakota Wildlife.
Trained volunteers are eligible to receive a game and fish volunteer shirt and equipment, such as binoculars, field guides and wildlife trunks, to help teach others about wildlife.
Training sessions in eastern North Dakota are as follows:
• March 10: Grand Forks, 6 to 9 p.m., Royal Fork restaurant.
• March 11: Devils Lake, 6 to 9 p.m., Pizza Ranch restaurant.
The free training sessions are open to prospective volunteers, and dinner will be served. Volunteers must be at least 18 years old to participate. Pre-registration is required by calling (701) 328-6615.
