Cokeville Meadows National Wildlife Refuge, National Wildlife Refuge in Lincoln County, Wyoming, United States

Cokeville Meadows National Wildlife Refuge is a protected area along the Bear River in Wyoming featuring wetlands, meadows, and sagebrush-covered hills. The habitat extends over several miles and contains diverse environments for birds and other animals.

The refuge was created in 1992 to protect a planned total of 26,657 acres of hills and wetlands around the Bear River. By the time of the French source, only 9,259 acres had been bought by the federal government or placed under an environmental easement. Less than a third of the designated lands are under U.S. Government administration; the rest is to be purchased from landowners who agree to sell. The refuge is managed from Seedskadee National Wildlife Refuge.

The refuge lies along a 20-mile stretch of the Bear River, whose wetlands are regarded as the finest redhead duck habitat in the region. Birders can look for white-faced ibis, snowy egret, long-billed curlew, great blue heron, American bittern and black-crowned night heron. Bald and golden eagles and peregrine falcons nest here in spring and fall.

The refuge is closed to the public except for a wildlife viewing station; there are no visitor services. It lies just off U.S. Route 30, one mile south of Cokeville, Wyoming. Bald and golden eagles and peregrine falcons nest on the refuge in spring and fall.

Only about 9,259 of the 26,657 designated acres are federally owned or under conservation easement; the rest is to be bought from willing private sellers. The refuge is run from Seedskadee National Wildlife Refuge, and public access is limited to a single wildlife viewing station.
