Guam National Wildlife Refuge, Wildlife refuge in Yigo, Guam.
The Guam National Wildlife Refuge spans 23,659 acres across three units: Andersen Air Force Base, Navy Overlay, and Ritidian, including both terrestrial and marine areas.
The Navy utilized this location as a communications site during the Cold War before donating 1,203 acres to the Fish and Wildlife Service in 1993.
The Ritidian Unit, known as Puntan Litekyan in CHamoru language, contains archaeological remains of pre-Magellan Chamorro settlements along the northern coast.
The Ritidian Unit welcomes visitors Wednesday through Sunday from 7:30 AM to 4:00 PM, offering nature paths, fishing opportunities, and swimming areas.
The refuge protects the last populations of Mariana fruit bats, Guam Micronesian Kingfishers, and the endangered Serianthes nelsonii tree species.
