Wildlife
This project is for young people who enjoy wildlife and those who want to learn more about wildlife. This book introduces youth to 12 animal species. Members interested in wildlife are encouraged to use this manual as a basis for their first year in the project and supplement it with other information.
It may take three years to complete a level. You must complete a minimum of seven activities and five learning experiences each year to complete this project.

Non-Animal Record Books
A Project/Financial Journal is needed for each non-animal related project. Project journals need to contain the name of the project, the year these records were kept, and a leader/parent signature. All sections of the journal need to be completed. If nothing was done in an area or section of a record sheet, the word “none” or something similar should be written.
