About
Imported description Chickasaw National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1985 and is 26,997 acres (June 2025). It has the largest tract of bottomland hardwood forest in Tennessee, and lies in the Lower Mississippi River floodplain. Eight miles of the refuge’s western boundary adjoins the Mississippi River. The refuge gets its name from the Chickasaw Indians, who historically occupied portions of west Tennessee, including Lauderdale County in which the refuge is located.
