tallgrass prairie
The Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve is a unique conservation area in the Flint Hills of Kansas, representing a significant portion of the once vast North American tallgrass prairie ecosystem. With less than 5% of the original tallgrass prairie remaining, this preserve offers a rare glimpse into an environment that is both historically and ecologically important. Visitors can explore nearly 11,000 acres of preserved land, where they might see the Tallgrass Prairie bison herd and experience the beauty of the prairie's flora and fauna.
