I would like to take a quick moment to wish everyone a Happy World Wetlands Day! Many people don’t realize the benefits that wetlands bring for both humans and animals alike. Wetlands can help reduce erosion, maintain and improve water quality and provide a great habitat for a wide variety of fish, birds, amphibians and reptiles. In addition, they can be an excellent place for recreational activities such as canoeing, kayaking and fishing! This World Wetlands Day, take some time to think about what you can do to help improve or maintain wetlands in your area.
