Kemp Natural Resources Station is a research and teaching
facility operated by the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences of the
University of Wisconsin at Madison.
Located in the heart of Wisconsin's Northwoods, Kemp
Station's 235 acres support some of the last remnants of old-growth forest
in the Lake States.
|
|
Several other distinct ecosystems are found on site, including:
- second-growth forests of hemlock, pine, and northern hardwoods
- lake coves
- bogs and one bog lake
- over one mile of shoreline along
Tomahawk Lake
|
| This varied environment supports a diverse wildlife
population of mammals, birds, amphibians, reptiles, fish, and
invertebrate, making Kemp Station uniquely suited as a center for natural resources research and
education. |
