Seatuck National Wildlife Refuge

Welcome to Seatuck National Wildlife Refuge located on the south shore of Long Island not too far from the bustling Big Apple.

Refuge History: On September 26, 1968, the Peter's family donated this land to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under the Migratory Bird Conservation Act. Natalie Peters Webster and her husband Charles once operated the land as a gentleman's estate and won many horticulture awards for their gardens.

Flora and Fauna: Seatuck National Wildlife Refuge helps protect the habitat of numerous plant and animal species. Some of the plants that grow inside the refuge boundaries include maples, oaks, pines, and many others. Some of the animals who call this place home include deer, rabbits, raccoons, foxes, mice, voles, and over 210 bird species including seagulls, ospreys, hawks, ducks, and many others. Please treat their home with respect.
