Description

Wildlife Rangers take action! Guiding young rangers, this helpful book provides information regarding how they can create a safe and healthy environment for the critters in their local area. Beginning with the basics of building habitats, children are introduced to observing the natural environment and animal life around them and how to create a notebook for recording their experiences. The remainder of the book is sectioned into chapters that are part field guide and part project-based activities. Readers are encouraged to design and create a backyard sanctuary for local wildlife. In the bird section, learn how to make a hummingbird swing, a deer block in the mammal section, or create a frog pond with the easy to follow, step-by-step instructions in the amphibian chapter. There are also chapters with projects and field guides for bugs, insects, and reptiles. The text is abundantly illustrated with photographs and colorful maps and illustrations. ~Deanne

Publisher's Description of Wildlife Ranger Action Guide

As concern for the welfare of species like honey bees and monarch butterflies grows alongside awareness of the impact of climate change, inspiring the next generation of citizen scientists is more important than ever. With Wildlife Ranger Action Guide, kids can make the world better for the animals and insects they love, starting right in their own backyards. Dozens of hands-on activities and habitat creation projects, such as making a frog pond from a kiddie pool, planting a pollinator garden for bees, painting a bat house, and building a lodge for lizards, encourage children to learn about and take an active role in protecting local wildlife. Lively photographic field guides covering 78 North American wildlife species teach kids about the habits and habitats of each and include tips for providing the plants and food needed for their survival.
