Memphis, Tenn. - March 19, 2015 - Ducks Unlimited has released the second installment in its new series of online films. The new film, "Conservation Class," joins a group of college students from across the country who come together during Christmas break near Tunica, Miss., to share their enthusiasm for waterfowling and their passion for conservation.
"These students are a bright spot on the horizon for wetlands and waterfowl conservation," said Mark Horobetz, DU's Manager of Youth and Education Programs. "I think viewers will enjoy the waterfowling action in this film. And I know viewers will be inspired by the dedication and commitment these young people exhibit for making a difference in the world."
Produced in partnership with Rock Road Creative, DU Films goes beyond the confines and formulas of traditional duck hunting shows, presenting the beauty and passion of waterfowling in new and unexpected ways. DU Films includes six short films that will premiere on the DU website this spring. Viewers can watch the first two films and find more information about the series at www.ducks.org/dufilms. New films will be released each month through July.
DU Films is made possible through sponsorships from Sitka Gear, Buck Gardner Calls and The Original Muck Boot Company.
