Wildlife Studies
Hullett Provincial Wildlife Area offers excellent opportunities to study wildlife species first-hand. The area supports populations of beaver, muskrat, white-tailed deer as well as bird species including waterfowl, bluebirds, song birds and raptors. Amphibians, reptiles, fish and insects are all part of the marsh community. Young people are fascinated by wildlife study which can build powerful connections to the natural world and enhance learning objectives. Some written materials are available for student assessment.
The beaver and muskrats feed on aquatic vegetation and on emergent vegetation along the ponds, pools and swamps of the Hullett Wildlife. Deer are active in the mornings, evenings and moonlight nights. The habitat at Hullett provides food and shelter for deer throughout the year. They move in groups and remain together during the winter.
The area provides superb opportunities to see wildlife management at its best. Ponds, Pools, Swamps, Shrublands, Rivers, Agricultural crops, Fallow fields and Dyketops provide food, habitat and shelter for waterfowl, bluebirds, song birds and raptors and a variety of other aquatic species.
