dbo:abstract
  • Le refuge faunique national de Roanoke River (en anglais : Roanoke River National Wildlife Refuge) a été créé en 1989 pour protéger les zones humides boisées constituées de feuillus et de marais qui abritent une faune sauvage abondante le long du fleuve Roanoke. Les terres du refuge se composent de forêts de feuillus divisées par des bas-fonds avec des cyprès et des Nyssa. Elles comprennent des zones humides boisées comprises dans les 130 miles inférieurs du fleuve Roanoke à partir de la Fall line à Weldon, en Caroline du Nord en amont de la baie d'Albemarle près de Plymouth.

  • Roanoke River National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1989 to protect and enhance wooded wetlands consisting of bottomland hardwoods and swamps with high waterfowl value along the Roanoke River. The extensive bottomland hardwood habitat of the Roanoke River National Wildlife Refuge is part of what the Nature Conservancy calls "one of the last great places." Refuge lands consist of bottomland hardwood forest interspersed with cypress-tupelo sloughs that includes forested wetlands in the lower 130 miles (210 km) of the Roanoke River from the Fall Line at Weldon, North Carolina downstream to the Albemarle Sound near Plymouth, North Carolina. The refuge includes part of an extensive wetland ecosystem that contains excellent examples of several southeastern plant communities and habitat types. These include levee forest, cypress-gum swamp, bottomland hardwoods, oxbows, beaver ponds and blackwater streams. These communities add to the rich mosaic of habitat types in the river's floodplain. The refuge includes valuable wetlands for fish and wildlife; especially waterfowl, neotropical migrants, and anadromous fish. The refuge hosts 214 species of birds, including 88 breeding resident species and the largest inland heron rookery in the state; white-tailed deer; one of the largest natural wild turkey populations in North Carolina; and a remnant population of black bear along with numerous small game and a diversity of fish species, including the endangered shortnose sturgeon.
