Audubon of Kansas Sanctuaries

 

Mount Mitchell Heritage Prairie
In cooperation with local community partners, Audubon of Kansas manages and protects Mount Mitchell Heritage Prairie--30 acres of native prairie that overlooks the Wabaunsee County countryside and holds a rich history involving the Beecher Bible and Rifle Colony, the underground railroad and early military expeditions.

 

 

 

Hutton Niobrara Ranch Wildlife Sanctuary
Located along the scenic Niobrara River near Bassett, Nebraska, Audubon of Kansas manages a 5,000-acre wildlife sanctuary and working ranch preserving the wishes of the late Harold and Lucille Hutton. Expanses of Sandhills prairie interconnects with wet meadows, wooded ravines and gallery forests along the meandering river. Audubon of Kansas combines wildlife and grassland conservation practices begun by Harold Hutton with responsible cattle grazing, and plans to develop a visitor center and recreational opportunities for public education and enjoyment.
