More Information
Details: Hatchie National Wildlife Refuge lies along 23.5 miles of the Hatchie Scenic River, the last unchannelized river of its type in the Lower Mississippi River Valley. The refuge provides an excellent remnant example of the 25 million acres of bottomland hardwood forest once dominating this majestic river valley.White-tailed deer, wild turkey, wood ducks, and river otter thrive to the seasonal undulations of the river. In fall and winter thousands of mallards and other ducks seek acorns, seeds, and tiny invertebrate animals in the flooded bottoms. As the ducks leave for northern climes in the spring, beautiful song birds from the south, such as the prothonatary and Swainson's warblers, fill the trees with their nests and their song.
