Volunteers Needed to Help Create Habitat for New England Cottontails


NH Fish and Game and the University of New Hampshire (UNH) Cooperative Extension are seeking volunteers to help restore the habitat of the endangered New England cottontail rabbit. Volunteers will plant native shrubs, which the rabbits use for shelter, at Bellamy River Wildlife Management Area in Dover on Saturday, April 21, 2018, from 9:00 a.m. to noon or 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.

“Volunteering to plant shrubs is a great way to spend time outdoors while working to help create important habitat for an endangered wildlife species,” said Haley Andreozzi, UNH Cooperative Extension Wildlife Outreach Coordinator.
