National Wildlife Week starts on Saturday-April 21! During this week-long observance, you can help connect people with nature in your own neighborhood .
Here's how:
Get a group of young people or families together and make a difference for your community. Choose from environmental service projects to help create healthy habitats, connect people with nature, and reduce the amount of greenhouse gases leading to global warming-or design your own project.
AND
Invite some friends to join in the National Wildlife Watch. Download a Watch list of wildlife in your state, take a walk around your neighborhood or favorite outdoor spot, and see how many animals you can find. Come back to post your findings at National Wildlife Federation's NatureQuestT site. Upload your wildlife photos too!
And to enjoy the beauty and wonder of spring all across America, tune in to the series launch of Spring Watch USA at 8pm e/p on Saturday, April 21, only on Animal Planet.
