§ 5.15. Wildlife Habitat and State Natural Areas  


Latest version.
  • Wildlife habitat can simply be defined as the presence of enough food, cover, and water to sustain a species. The Greenwood landscape provides habitat for a variety of plants, birds, mammals, amphibians, reptiles and fish.

    The City of Greenwood, like all of Clark County, site in an important location with regard to whitetail deer, bear, and turkey populations. Both the Black River corridor and the Clark County Forest serve as important segments in the link between southern and northern Wisconsin deer and bear populations. These "wild" areas provide lanes of travel between major northern forest and southern farmland habitat blocks. There are no State Natural Areas in the City of Greenwood.
