Two Ponds National Wildlife Refuge

Two Ponds NWR is one of over 540 refuges in the National Wildlife Refuge System--a network of lands set aside specifically for wildlife.

Two Ponds NWR is managed for the benefit of vanishing wetlands and native wildlife species. Refuge habitats include wetlands, riparian woodlands, and prairie grasslands. Land management tools include water level manipulation, removal of non-native invasive plant species, re seeding of native prairie habitat, mowing, and noxious weed control.

The National Refuge System is a living heritage, conserving wildlife and habitat for people today and generations to come.

The primary purposes of the Refuge are

to restore, enhance and preserve a diversity of upland and wetland habitats for migrant and resident wildlife
provide opportunities for environmental education
provide opportunities for wildlife dependant recreation

The on-going development of environmental education programs include a mixture of appropriate activities that provide visitor access without compromising the protection of the habitat.
