Habitat loss is the single most serious problem facing Kentucky wildlife today. Natural lands and farms are being converted into suburban developments at an ever increasing rate.
Maybe you already feed wild birds, put up nest boxes, or plant flowers for butterflies. If so, your actions have benefited wildlife. Now you can do even more to help wildlife by participating in Backyard Wildlife, a habitat improvement program designed to encourage and recognize the efforts of suburban homeowners and schools who create habitat for wildlife in backyards and on school grounds. Participation in the program provides many benefits.
