Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1970 as an overlay project of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers\u2019 Robert S. Kerr Reservoir.<\/p>\n
The refuge, spanning 20,800 acres, provides habitat for many species of migratory birds and food and cover for other resident wildlife, like deer, turtles, snakes, bobcats, beavers, songbirds, owls, and American Bald Eagle.<\/p>\n
Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge has very unique habitat that is found within the Arkansas River flood plain that includes bottomland hardwood forests and wetlands.<\/p>\n
Within this refuge echoes of ancient civilizations resonate through the ages. Dating back to 1100 AD, the remnants of ancient campsites stand as poignant reminders of the Native American tribes who once traversed these lands, relying on the bounty of the Arkansas River.<\/p>\n
