Did you know that there are millions of acres of land in this country that belong to you? 223 million hectares (550 million acres), to be more specific. This land is not owned by any individual or company. Instead, it's Federal land and it's owned by the American people . . . and that means you! We developed a booklet of amazing facts and activities about America's Public Lands. Each page describes something about the land, or what you can do to protect it. Each page also has an activity that you can do on your own to learn more about Public Lands--perfect for when you're stuck in the back seat of the minivan on the way to a National Monument! We have made available the pages and activities of Walk on the Wild Side for you to download and print out. They are in "PDF" form, which means you will need the Adobe Acrobat Reader to see them.
