Appalachian Hills Wildlife Area
The combination of woodland, open areas, and islands of vegetation left undisturbed during the mining process creates transitional zones that provide brushy and reverting fields. These areas are prime habitat components that provide excellent hunting opportunities. White-tailed deer, cottontail rabbit, turkey, mourning dove, squirrel, and grouse are the principal game species. |
