Wildlife viewing is among the fastest growing outdoor recreation activities in the United States. Wildlife agencies, including KDWP, are interested in gathering data about wildlife viewers (those who intentionally observe, feed, or photograph wildlife; travel to parks, protected areas, or other natural spaces with the purpose of feeding, observing, or photographing wildlife, and those who maintain plantings or natural areas for the benefit of wildlife) behaviors, experiences, perceptions, needs, and preferences. This information is essential for more meaningful and substantive engagement for state agencies with this often underserved constituency. KDWP wildlife diversity coordinator, Daren Riedle, shares with us a recent study that Kansas participated in to learn more about this significant group and how we can better serve them.  HostsTanna Wagner, Lyndzee RhineSourcesKansas Results of the Wildlife Viewer SurveyChickadee Checkoff ProgramWildlife Diversity - Facebook pageLearn More About Wildlife Watching Follow the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks on Facebook and Instagram.
