Wildlife Judging - 

Georgia is one of the most biologically diverse states in the nation, ranking 2nd in amphibian species, 3rd in freshwater fish species, and 7th in reptile species. Wildlife Judging challenges 4-H youth to learn about Georgia wildlife species as well as habitat, population, and fish pond/stream management practices for conservation success.

In wildlife judging students will learn about wildlife concepts, wildlife management practices, to identify native species, to evaluate habitats, and to make recommendations for modifications of habitats to benefit the target species.
