Adventures in Learning: Big Muddy National Fish and Wildlife Refuge
This is a Stand alone Class:
Big Muddy National Fish and Wildlife Refuge
The flood of 1993 destroyed the bottomland forest, which was the dominant habitat along the lower part of the Missouri River. Join us to learn about this Refuge established in 1994 from St. Louis to Kansas City.
Today a young growth of gallery forests covers several thousand acres providing a habitat important to migratory songbirds and raptors as well as many animals, reptiles and amphibians. Tim Haller, Visitor Services Manager at US Fish and Wildlife Services, will guide us in this journey concentrating on an area near Booneville called Jackass Bend.
