San Joaquin River National Wildlife Refuge

Established in 1987, the 7,300-acre San Joaquin River National Wildlife Refuge is located in California's Stanislaus County. The refuge is situated where three major rivers (Tuolumne, Stanislaus and San Joaquin) join in the San Joaquin Valley, creating a mosaic of habitats that provide ideal conditions for great wildlife and plant diversity. The refuge was initially established primarily to provide wintering habitat for the Aleutian cackling goose – a federally-listed endangered species at that time. Today, the refuge is managed with a focus on migratory birds, endangered species, and riparian and wetland habitat restoration. Through rigorous efforts at the refuge, there is hope the highly-endangered riparian brush rabbit will one day join the Aleutian cackling goose as a fully-recovered species.
