Since its inception in 2004, Florida's Wildlife Legacy
Initiative has worked with more than 100 partners to create
approximately 150 projects supported by Florida's State Wildlife
Grant program. Posters have been developed for many of these
projects, and are displayed below by goal category. The full-sized
posters have been displayed at many events of Florida's Wildlife
Legacy Initiative as well as partner events. These attractive
posters provide brief summaries of the project purpose,
objectives, approach and benefits. Participation in the poster
projects was optional; therefore not all State Wildlife Grant
projects are represented here. Posters may be viewed/downloaded at
full size or at letter size (for printing or viewing
on-screen).
