Operated by the Agassiz Audubon Society the Sanctuary consists of 800 acres of wildlife habitat. Enjoy yourself among restored prairies, created wetlands and planted deciduous and coniferous woodlots.
You will see many different types of wildlife in the various habitats. Moose and deer are a common sight. Long-eared owls, wood ducks, sandhill cranes and black-billed magpies are just a few of the nesting birds on site. Also, found in the ponds are chorus frogs, tiger salamanders and painted turtles.
Enjoy hiking, biking, and skiing on over 6 miles of trail, including the "Landscaping for Wildlife Trail" and the "Bluebird Trail."
