Ducks Unlimited Wisconsin 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.

Johnny Morris, Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s are proud to partner with sportsmen and women across North America in support of DU and its invaluable conservation work.
For 85 years Ducks Unlimited has provided a voice for waterfowlers and their forward-thinking, groundbreaking commitment to wetlands and waterfowl resources. The results of DU’s approach are remarkable. They include:
A continent-wide approach that links the passion of duck hunters from across North America with the ability to execute on-the-ground conservation work where it matters most — the Duck Factory that is the Prairie Pothole Region of Canada and the northern great plains of the United States.
More than 15 million acres conserved and almost 1 billion protected acres in the Canadian Boreal Forest.
Today Ducks Unlimited boasts a membership of more than 750,000 and hosts more than 4,000 banquets each year. It’s long-term focus on conserving wetland habitat in the Prairie Pothole Region has raised the profile of one of the most powerful tools in the conservation arsenal — the conservation easement.
