Wildlife Leadership Academy was a wealth of information and experiences, many of which were hands on, and served to expand our knowledge of freshwater ecosystems, conservation, and environmental issues.

Through this program my knowledge of leadership has expanded more than it ever could on my own. I’ve learned the importance of stepping out my comfort zone. This adventure has marked the beginning of a lifetime of conservation!

While at the field school, I learned more in a week more than I thought I could. Needless to say, WLA bucktails field school was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had and I recommend it to anyone who has a passion for wildlife.
