Seedskadee National Wildlife Refuge, National Wildlife Refuge in Sweetwater County, US.
Seedskadee National Wildlife Refuge is a protected area along the Green River in southwestern Wyoming, combining river landscapes, forests, and open plains. The land offers different habitats that attract birds, mammals, and other animals, particularly during spring and fall migration periods.
The refuge was established in 1965 to protect important habitats and migration routes for wildlife. This creation was part of a national effort to preserve threatened ecosystems along river landscapes in the American West.
The refuge serves as an educational center where visitors learn about Wyoming's wildlife through guided tours and observation programs.
Visitors can explore on multiple trails for hiking, photography, and wildlife observation, with seasonal opportunities for fishing and hunting. Comfortable shoes and binoculars are helpful, and the best time to visit is spring and fall when many animals are traveling.
Over 300 animal species live here, including moose, pronghorn, elk, and rare swan populations. This variety makes the refuge a rare place where you can encounter so many different wildlife species in one location.
