Discovery Park’s newest permanent exhibit, “Duck, Duck, Goose: Waterfowl of the Mississippi Flyway” has been featured on the popular podcast “The Fowl Life” with host Chad Belding.
Episode 352 is titled “The Intersection of Conservation and Waterfowl Hunting – Discovery Park Of America.” In the episode, Discovery Park’s CEO Scott Williams, discusses details of the exhibit, the role of the regional waterfowl hunting conservationists and hunters and more.
In each episode of his podcast, Belding follows waterfowl migration, providing listeners with behind-the-scenes experiences relating to waterfowl hunting and conservation and advice on choosing the right gear, new hunting strategies, duck calling techniques, how to prepare wild game and more. “The Fowl Life” features industry leaders, expert waterfowl hunters, professional athletes and others who are passionate about waterfowl hunting.
Born in 1974 in Reno, Nevada, Chad Belding is a lifelong sportsman and outdoors enthusiast whose love of the lifestyle was instilled at a very young age by his father the late outdoorsman Orville “Orv” Belding.
Chad’s passion eventually led him to predator and waterfowl hunting, and soon thereafter he became involved in competitive duck and goose calling in the late 1990’s while attending college at The University of Nevada, Reno. In college, he was a member of the competitive Division I baseball team and studied business, public speaking and history. After graduating with a Bachelor’s degree he put his background in business to good use, co-owning and operating several businesses across Nevada, Colorado and Washington.
The call of the wilderness never left Belding, and in 2008 he founded Banded, a video production and merchandising company that specializes in waterfowl hunting gear and accessories as well as a selection of turkey hunting products. He also originated “The Fowl Life” television series, which went to air in 2009. “The Fowl Life” continues today as one of the top waterfowl hunting shows on the Outdoor Channel.
