Carrol Henderson: A National Legacy

 

Carrol Henderson’s new book, A National Legacy: Fifty Years of Nongame Wildlife Conservation in Minnesota, covers over fifty years of Minnesota conservation efforts on behalf of wildlife ranging from bald eagles, peregrine falcons, loons, sandhill cranes, and trumpeter swans to bluebirds, hummingbirds, river otters, Canada lynx, wood turtles, and timber rattlesnakes.

 

However, this book is not just about historical wildlife conservation accounts. It includes a vision for future conservation projects. There are “life lessons,” or strategies, that he learned from his 44-year employment with the DNR and in working with our many Minnesota conservation partners incorporated those strategies into planning and implementing those wildlife conservation efforts.

 

Carrol will be our featured speaker at our Annual Holiday Party at the Chapter House on Sunday, January 18 and he will have copies of his new book for sale.
