Conservation Connect is a web-based video series produced by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service National Conservation Training Center (NCTC), which aims to connect youth, ages 9-13
(although any age is encouraged to enjoy!), with the great outdoors, wildlife species, and conservation careers.
Our 6–8-minute episodes are available for teachers to watch with their students available on the Conservation Connect YouTube Channel. During the school year, your class has the opportunity to participate in Live broadcasts and ask questions to real wildlife experts.
Our current Conservation Connect "Live" broadcasts are now available on the USFWS YouTube. These episodes run 30-40 minutes and have been recorded with online student audiences or with classes that have visited the NCTC studio. All “Live” episodes feature wildlife or fisheries biologists who provide insights into their career path and the species they protect.
