Where Oklahoma's Ducks Come From

The Prairie Pothole Region is critical to Oklahoma waterfowl hunters.

The vast majority of Oklahoma's annual duck harvest migrates to us from the Prairie Pothole Region, also referred to as "the duck factory."

The Prairie Pothole Region is DU's #1 conservation focus area. In addition Oklahoma benefits from DU's Southern Great Plains and West Gulf Coastal Plain conservation work as the organization continues to conserve critical waterfowl habitat in the Sooner State.

There is no waterfowl conservation organization that represents the needs of Oklahoma waterfowl hunters like Ducks Unlimited.

Our vital conservation work provides support to our migration both on the breeding grounds and here at home.

With your help, we will preserve our waterfowl hunting heritage through habitat conservation of these areas vital to the Oklahoma migration and harvest.
