Places to Go

State Natural Areas protect outstanding examples of native natural communities, significant geological formations, and archaeological sites. They harbor natural features essentially unaltered by human-caused disturbances or that have substantially recovered from disturbance over time. SNAs also provide the last refuges in Wisconsin for rare plants and animals.

Several bog and barrens communities are protected within Wisconsin's State Natural Areas Program. The State Natural Areas listed below are good places to see Lepidoptera associated with bogs and barrens.
