From otters to butterflies: How Minnesota became a pioneer in nongame wildlife conservation

From otters to butterflies: How Minnesota became a pioneer in nongame wildlife conservation
Great Lakes Echo

By Kyrmyzy Turebayeva

It was here that one of the nation’s first state programs dedicated to protecting so-called nongame wildlife emerged from butterflies and bats to bald eagles and river otters. That story is now told in detail by Carrol Henderson in his new book, “A National Legacy: Fifty Years of Nongame Wildlife Conservation in Minnesota."
