And the 2016 Youth Wildlife Art Contest Winners are...

In the past month, we have seen hundreds of outstanding works of art from youth all over the country for the 2016 Youth Wildlife Art Contest. This year, over 750 entries were submitted from 46 states - almost double the amount of entries from last year! We saw all types of North American wildlife from ducks to elk to lynx to pikas to caribou. Each piece was unique, creative, and extremely impressive.

The judges have voted, the public has voted, and the results are in.
