Bogue Chitto National Wildlife Refuge

Bogue Chitto National Wildlife Refuge, located in Pearl River, Louisiana, is a pristine sanctuary spanning 36,500 acres of the Pearl River Basin. This undisturbed wild swampland features a diverse landscape of sloughs, bayous, and lakes, providing a habitat for unique plant and animal communities adapted to the seasonal floods of the Mississippi Delta area.

The refuge is home to threatened species such as the ringed sawback turtle, Gulf sturgeon, and gopher tortoise, and offers recreational activities including fishing, hunting, paddling, bird watching, and nature photography. With most areas accessible only by boat, visitors can explore the refuge's natural beauty and conservation efforts in a tranquil and immersive setting.
