LOCATION: Southwestern Oklahoma (near Lawton/Ft. Sill)   Wichita Mountains National Wildlife Refuge is a nature photographer's oasis. Nestled among huge and colorful massive granite boulders; pinion pines and scrub oaks, this mountainous area is believed to be more than 650 million years old. You will find wildlife in their own natural settings. Bison, antelope, elk, deer and longhorn cattle are among the residents of this 60,000 acre preserve.

Once hunted to near extinction, the American Bison roams and grazes freely at Wichita Mountain NWR.

The refuge also houses an extensive Visitor Center, where you will enjoy a wealth of information about the history of this special place and the many species of wildlife, birds and plants that call the refuge "home."
