Iowa is roughly 97% private land, making it the bulk of the wildlife habitat in the state and private landowners the most important habitat and wildlife managers. This program will focus on some of the actions you can take in your yard and garden to make it a haven for wildlife, especially in urban/suburban areas. .....Stephanie is a biologist with Iowa DNR's Wildlife Diversity Program. She studied prairie ecosystems and butterfly communities for her MS degree at Iowa State University and strives to advocate for a focus on all wildlife, even invertebrates, in conservation efforts.
