Rural Teens and Nature : Conservation and Wildlife Rehabilitation

Although we often take it for granted, the natural world is constantly around us, offering us its many gifts.

Planet Earth is a miraculous place, filled with growing things; plants, animals, and other forms of life are everywhere.

Kids who grow up in the country experience this reality every day.

There are many ways that each of us can help preserve the bountiful gifts nature offers.

Every time someone appreciates the beauty and wonder of the natural world and makes a responsible choice, that person does her part to make the world a better place.

Another person may choose to take an even more active role; he might pursue volunteer work or even a career in this field.

There are many opportunities to do things every day that benefit the Earth and its creatures - and you don't need to grow up in the country to experience them!
