WILDLIFE
Years of progressive wildlife management practices by the State of West Virginia at nearby Moncove Lake Wildlife Management Area have created an essential wildlife preserve. Early on, MLWMA goals promoted overall wildlife health, facilitated the harvest of game, developed wildlife viewing areas, increased carrying capacity, and increased species diversity.
The Bear Trak Cabin property has a mixture of mature hardwood species. The diverse tree species, coupled with abundant water supply from the seasonal creeks and springs, create a perfect wildlife habitat. The creeks, hollows, ridges, rock outcroppings and forest, are the textbook habitat benefiting all the resident wildlife, bald eagles, whitetail deer, black bear, wild turkey, squirrels, rabbits, bobcats, raccoons, foxes and many species of songbirds, owls, and raptors make up the resident wildlife population. The hardwood forest provides an essential nutrient source and produces tons of hard mass including acorns, hickory nuts, beechnut, and black walnuts. Soft mass includes sage horns, black cherry, tulip poplar seeds, maple seeds, autumn olive berries, and blackberries.
