| Tiêu đề bài viết: | Ducks Unlimited Indiana |
Ducks Unlimited is one of the most storied groups in the history of conservation. Founded by concerned waterfowlers during the Dust Bowl, the group artfully orchestrates its trademark approach to conservation through a combination of passion, science and the firm commitment to a singleness of purpose. DU is defined by community and its unique ability to foster the ethic of natural resource stewardship that has so proudly been felt by duck hunters across North America for more than a century. The 1930s were a difficult time for Americans. The Great Depression left many families destitute, and farmers attempted to make up for their losses and low crop values by cultivating more land. To make matter worse, the Great Plains and Midwest experienced severe drought throughout the 1930s, and this lack of water coupled with increased agricultural pressure damaged fragile prairie grasses from the Llano Estacado of Texas to the boreal forests in Canada. Topsoil on the Plains that had accumulated over millennia dried and was blown as far away as New York City, where ships in Long Island Sound lay cloaked by the dust of the dying prairie thousands of miles away. Things were no better in Canada. Vast wetlands in Alberta, Manitoba, and other provinces were drained so that the land could be cultivated. However, the soil beneath these marshes, which contained high levels of peat, proved poor for farming. Worse yet, the peat dried and easily caught fire. Draining marshes also damaged the water table on the Canadian prairie. Families who were already contending with the greatest drought in living memory suddenly found their wells dry.
