Nancy Gibson remembers the first time she felt a love for wildlife. A baby squirrel got stuck in the gutter of her home and she rescued it. She bottle-fed the squirrel, and it survived after being released into the wild.
Gibson was young when that happened, but she grew into a wildlife enthusiast who focused on wolves, science, and a passion for the Legislative-Citizen Commission on Minnesota Resources. Members of the LCCMR make funding recommendations to the legislature for special environment and natural resource projects.
