Diversifying, enhancing habitat at Iowa’s Sugema Wildlife Area benefits birds, and local recreation
The Sugema Wildlife Area-Lacey-Keosauqua State Park-Shimek State Forest areas make up a hub of outdoor recreation in far southeast Iowa, six miles from the Missouri state line.
“This area has something for everyone — hiking, biking, hunting, bird watching, paddling, fishing, camping, fall colors, antiquing, sightseeing – there’s a lot of things to do around here,” said Jeff Glaw, wildlife biologist for the Iowa Department of Natural Resources (DNR).
