Indiana’s hellbender populations have experienced
Indiana’s hellbender populations have experienced steep declines in recent years, with the only known remaining population in the Blue River, located in extreme south-central Indiana. Recovery efforts have been made possible by multiple partners including the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Indiana DNR, Purdue University, cooperating Indiana zoos, and the neighboring states of Ohio and Kentucky, among others.
Want to become a partner in the conservation of hellbenders and Indiana’s other endangered wildlife? Funding for Indiana’s nongame and endangered species is not paid for by state taxes, but rather is driven by donations to the Nongame Wildlife Fund. For every $5 you donate to the fund, the federal government matches it with $9. That means $5 from you equals $14 for conservation.
