Your state income tax form has a check-off box you can use to make a contribution to the DNR non-game wildlife fund. This is an important source of revenue for the single state department devoted to animals that are not hunted. Birds, for instance. This is as easy a way as you can find to make a donation. The money comes from your tax refund or is added to your tax bill. Contributions of any size can be made. One current project funded by the non-game department is the video cam feeding live pictures of the Bald Eagle pair raising three chicks.
