The Prairie Pothole Region and Pacific Northwest are critical to Oregon waterfowl hunters.
A significant portion of our annual duck harvest migrates to us from the Prairie Pothole Region, also referred to as "the duck factory." In addition, a substantial number of mallards and other species breed in our state and other portions of the Pacific Northwest.
The Prairie Pothole Region and Pacific Northwest are high priority conservation focus areas for Ducks Unlimited. In addition Oregon benefits from DU’s Great Basin conservation work as the organization continues to conserve critical waterfowl habitat in our state.
There is no waterfowl conservation organization that represents the needs of Oregon waterfowl hunters like Ducks Unlimited. Our vital conservation work provides support to our migration both on the breeding grounds and here in the Beaver State.
With your help, we will preserve our waterfowl hunting heritage through habitat conservation of these areas vital to the Oregon migration and harvest.
