The 185 acres of virgin mixed grass prairie and coulees is host to incredible biodiversity: like badger, porcupine, owls, jackrabbits, cottontails, deer, coyote, gray partridge, prairie ground squirrels, weasel, a multitude of hawks and eagles, along with an amazing amount of wild flowers, grasses and native pollinators.
