About

The Northern Tallgrass Prairie National Wildlife Refuge is a National Wildlife Refuge located in Iowa and Minnesota in the United States. The United States Government established it to provide a means of working with individuals, groups, private organizations, and entities of the U.S. Government, Government of Iowa, and Government of Minnesota to permanently preserve a portion of the remnant tracts of northern tallgrass prairie in Iowa and Minnesota. The United States Fish and Wildlife Service is acquiring remnant prairie tracts for the refuge from willing private landowners through both conservation easements and fee title purchases.
