Muleshoe National Wildlife Refuge
Muleshoe National Wildlife Refuge, National wildlife refuge in Bailey County, Texas.
The 6,440-acre refuge features salt lakes, grasslands, and wetlands that support populations of sandhill cranes, waterfowl, and diverse prairie species.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt established this refuge in 1935 as the Muleshoe Migratory Waterfowl Refuge, making it the oldest wildlife sanctuary in Texas.
The refuge incorporates rangeland management techniques such as controlled burning and grazing to maintain the natural grassland ecosystems.
Visitors can access the refuge by taking Highway 214 south from Muleshoe for 20 miles and turning west on Caliche Road for 2.25 miles.
White gypsum dunes northeast of White Lake resemble a miniature version of those found at White Sands National Park in New Mexico.
