Palmetto Ducks Unlimited SC

What a great day spent talking conservation, fundraising, leadership, and the future of Ducks Unlimited in South Carolina. 40 volunteers representing 13 chapters were in attendance.
From promising breeding habitat conditions and waterfowl forecasts, to sharing ideas that help chapters raise more money and conserve more habitat, there's a lot to be excited about heading into this fall.
Thank you to every volunteer who continues to give their time, talents, and passion to Ducks Unlimited. Together, we're making a lasting impact for wetlands, waterfowl, and future generations.

They are actively trying to intercept our shipments! 😂 You just don't see mallards out here terrorizing the delivery drivers. Secure your tickets to the Newberry Palmetto DU Fall Banquet before the flock gets to them! 🦆>🦃 Link in bio to get yours.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is reviewing a rule that helps ensure voluntary National Wildlife Refuge System wetland easements in the Prairie Pothole Region are not drained or degraded. For more than 60 years, administrations of both parties have upheld these voluntary easement agreements, protecting habitat that Americans have already paid to conserve.

The Prairie Pothole Region is the "Duck Factory" of North America, producing more than half of the continent's migratory waterfowl and sustaining the hunting traditions we all cherish. For generations, duck hunters, anglers, and conservationists have invested billions of dollars through Duck Stamps, hunting licenses, and other conservation programs to protect these vital wetlands.

The current rule is working. It protects critical waterfowl habitat, provides certainty for landowners through science-based setback plans, and preserves the integrity of conservation easements that have delivered enormous benefits for wildlife and hunters alike.

Weakening these protections could open the door to the drainage of federally protected wetlands at a time when waterfowl populations are already under pressure and hunting opportunities face increasing challenges.

The stakes are simple: No wetlands. No waterfowl. No hunting heritage.

Please join Ducks Unlimited in urging the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to maintain this proven rule and uphold more than six decades of conservation success. Click the link below to submit your personalized comment to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
