A dike system encompasses most of the WMA impounding the old drainage to restore marsh habitats.  More recently additional wetlands and grasslands were restored through a cooperative project with Ducks Unlimited, Inc. in the northwestern part of the WMA.  A variety of wetland wildlife are found in the area including waterfowl, sandhill cranes, herons, rails, muskrats and mink.  The forest tracts are home to squirrels, woodpeckers, owls and numerous song birds, especially during spring and fall migration.
