Waterfowl conservation focuses on protecting and managing bird species that rely on aquatic habitats, such as ducks, geese, and swans. These birds play essential roles in ecosystems, including seed dispersal and maintaining wetland health. Conservation efforts often involve habitat restoration, protection of breeding grounds, and sustainable hunting practices to ensure healthy populations. Organizations like the Ducks Unlimited and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service work to create and maintain wetlands, which are crucial for waterfowl. These initiatives also promote public awareness and education about the importance of preserving these species and their habitats for future generations.
