Wildlife Management

Log Landing WMA

These lands were acquired and are managed by the Suwannee River Water Management District (SRWMD) for the conservation and protection of water resources, public recreational use, and the restoration of natural communities.


Jena Unit - Big Bend WMA

For many years, local people have hunted on the lands now constituting the Big Bend WMA. Hunting and fishing continue to be the most popular recreational activities in the area. Biologists manage habitats to provide high-quality forage for dove, quail, deer and wild turkey as well as for nongame wildlife.


Lower Suwannee National

Wildlife Refuge

Hunting is an important wildlife management tool that we recognize as a healthy, traditional outdoor pastime, deeply rooted in America’s heritage.
