Waubay National Wildlife Refuge, located in northeastern South Dakota north of Waubay, is in the Prairie Pothole Region, a key region in North America for waterfowl conservation. The Refuge was established in 1935 as a refuge and breeding ground for migratory birds and other wildlife. Today, the National Wildlife Refuge System has more than 565 Refuges and is in all 50 states. The Refuge System is the largest system of lands in the world dedicated to preserving fish, wildlife, and their habitats, and it is administered by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service. Opportunities for the public to enjoy the Waubay National Wildlife Refuge occur throughout the year, but it's important to remember that the needs of wildlife come first. The Refuge is open during daylight hours every day. The visitor center is open 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays.
