Avoid harvesting crops during nesting and fawning seasons to reduce nest destruction and mortality.
Uncropped areas around crop fields or unhayed areas around hay fields designed to provide nesting, brooding, and escape cover for many wildlife species.
Reducing tree density in woods adjacent to fields. More sunlight will stimulate the understory to grow, providing more diverse cover from the field into the woods.
Removal of nonnative invasive plants that do not provide suitable cover, structure, or food for wildlife.
The creation or preservation of dying, dead, and down trees. Many birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, and a host of invertebrates and fungi are closely associated with standing dead trees or down woody material.
Some species den, nest, or roost in cavities or other structures they don't excavate themselves. If natural cavities are not available, artificial structures (nest boxes) can be used.
Legal agreement between landowner and conservation organization that places permanent restrictions on what can be done on a property
Controlling or changing the intensity and duration of livestock grazing, which direction impacts the vegetation community and therefore the wildlife.
Supplemental food source for many wildlife species when naturally occurring food is a limiting factor for maintaining or increasing the population.
