Four Corners WMA Kittleson Addition

Description

In an area of highest priority for acquiring additional habitat, acquire 130 acres of high quality habitat for the Four Corners WMA, adding to a concentration of public and privately owned protected habitat. While the majority of this parcel was farmed at one time, a few acres of diverse high quality native prairie survived, and still exist on the slopes of a steep draw of a drainage-way that gives this parcel some extra character. Pasturing of this site in recent years has helped the spread of some species of local ecotype native plants to become established throughout the site.
