Wildlife habitat, the land or marine environment in which aq animal finds the food, water, cover or shelter, and space it requires to live and reproduce, is shrinking daily. It is estimated that in the United States alone one million acres of wetland habitat is lost yearly. When you include the areas of forests, grasslands, deserts and riparian zones lost to development every year, the dumber is staggering. Today, the earth is the home of about two million spades of animals and plants. It also houses ' almost five billion people. that indicate PRtfections by the turn of the century, there will be six billion people. It is estimated in the Western United States alone, people outnumber the population of all big game, all the deer, elk, moose, proghorn antelope, bighorn sheep, mountain goats, and buffalo added together, by 10 to L Domeatie livestock 120 to L outnumber the Take a look at a map ofUtah. It looks like there are endless tunities for growth and deviuop- ment of cities and industry without affecting wildlife. Unfortunately this isn't true. The best habitat for wildlife is also the moat desired for human development Where have people settled? In the valleys or on the benches where there is easy access to water. These same areas are the best winter ranges for wildlife. The valleys and benches are critical habitat for survival of the herds ofbiggame, the flocks of waterfowl and almoat all wildlife which winters in Utah. In a survey released a couple of years ago, the Wasatch Front made the top ten list for the fastest growing areas in the nation. Utah also has the nations highest birth rate. This creates an obvious conflictbetween the wildlife living on the land today and the people who want to move there tomor- It leaves questions that must be addressed, both in the present and the future. How can wildlife be conserved and protected? How can'the quality of life be maintained? How do we balance be- tween culture and nature, between human development, and the natural environment And finally, who should make the ded-sian- i? There are no easy answers and there might not be any answers, just partial solutions and alternatives. But one thing is dear. In Swing into Spring order to make wise decisions and to develop a long term approach to and haMtat, we need trained wildlife managers and an informed public. To meet this need, wildlife professionals, educators and concerned citizens joined together to develop a supplemental training-ai- d program for elementary and secondary school teachers called Prqfect Wild. This program is d igneil to supplement the core curriculum! educators put together with activities and issues relating to wildlife. Perhaps the strongest selling point of the program is it consists of three easy to use activity guidebooks designed to teach students iliow to think rather than what to think. The principle organisation behind PTqject Wild is WREEC, the Western Regional Environmental Education Council. This is a nonprofit organisation comprised of representatives from education and natural resource agencies in the 13 western states. In 1980, WREEC contracted with ' the Western Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies to develop Prqjeet Wild. The actual writing and development of the activity guides began in 1981. These activities were written primarily by classroom teachers with , the assistance of administrators, university faculty, wildlife professional s and representatives from youth, environmental, community and conservation groups. The activities were written and reviewed by more than 600 individuals. The best 120 activities were selected and sent out to be field tested by classroom teachers and students in rural, urban and suburban settings. The activities where then reevaluated, revised and sent out again. ' In the fell of 1983, after three years of testing and revising; the first edition of the Prqject Wild activity guides became available to the 20 states and four national and international organizations involved in the development of the program. Today, there are more than 40 states and six national and international organisations officially using Project Wild. There are now three activity guides, one for elementary school teachers, one for secondary school teachers and a relatively new aquatic guide which can be used by both elementary and secondary school teachers. Introducing teachers and other youth leaders to the Project Wild activity guides became the responsibility of the Natural Resource Agency thatcovers wildlife management for each state. In Utah, it means the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (UDWR). . Save on Tires & Sendees!
