WHO WE ARE
The Aroostook National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1998, when 4,700 acres of the former Loring Air Force Base in Limestone, Maine, was transferred to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The refuge has grown to 4,900 acres and includes over 2,400 acres in conservation easements.
The Aroostook National Wildlife Refuge is located in Aroostook County, Maine. This is the largest county east of the Mississippi river with a population density of 11.1 persons per square mile. The total area of Aroostook County is 6,672 square miles.
The Aroostook National Wildlife Refuge is currently working on restoring wildlife and bird habitat on part of the former military base. Old military buildings and parking lots have been turned into grasslands for wildlife and birds. Twelve miles of trails have been constructed for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, hiking, bird watching and wildlife viewing. The Aroostook National Wildlife Refuge currently contains 10 ponds, plus Greenlaw Brook, Willard Brook, Butterfield Brook and Little Madawaska Stream.
The Aroostook National Wildlife Refuge is located off Route 89; 5 miles from downtown Limestone and 8 miles from Caribou.
The Friends of Aroostook National Wildlife Refuge is a non-profit volunteer organization working with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
