LAKE HAVASU CITY – Nature lovers were in for a treat last week when Bill Williams Refuge Ranger Joey Saccomaano had a talk with the community about many of the wildlife views in Lake Havasu.
The Calling All Nature Lovers Learning About Lake Havasu Wildlife took place on Wednesday, February 19 at 3:30 p.m. at the Lake Havasu Library. Saccomaano has dedicated 10 years of his life helping to preserve lower Colorado River’s wildlife resources. It was in 1993 that 61,000 acres of Lake Havasu National Wildlife Refuge was assigned as Bill Williams River National Wildlife Refuge.
The refuge is serenely located in La Paz and Mohave Counties. The nature nonprofit’s mission is to oversee a national network of the many beautiful aspects of nature. Ongoing plans for preservations are for plants, wildlife, fish, water, and land, for future generations to enjoy.
The Refuge Park Ranger discussed the many areas in Lake Havasu where wildlife can be spotted such as Catfish Paradise, Five Mile Landing, South Dike, and various other locations. The talk also focused on the many wildlife species currently living in Havasu as well as how one can attract the numerous species in their own backyard.
