Final answer:
The difference between 'around the home' and 'away from home' wildlife watching involves the location and possibly the intent of the activity. 'Around the home' is casual and local while 'away from home' is likely to be more planned and involves travel. Participation rates may differ, likely with more frequent wildlife watching occurring 'around the home' due to its convenience.
Step-by-step explanation:
The National Survey likely distinguishes between "around the home" and "away from home" wildlife watching based on proximity to one’s place of residence and the formality of the activity. Wildlife watching around the home would involve observing animals in one's yard or neighborhood, whereas wildlife watching away from home could involve travel to parks or natural reserves for the specific purpose of observing wildlife.
Participation rates between the two may vary, with potentially higher participation "around the home," as it requires less effort, time, and potentially no expenses compared to organizing a trip to observe wildlife "away from home." Moreover, the convenience of watching from home might appeal to a broader demographic, including those who might find travel difficult. Data from a survey would elucidate these participation rates in detail. However, this answer does not include raw data from an actual survey, as the question did not provide specific survey data to be used.
