Albany Wildlife Area

Albany Wildlife Area in Green County, Wisconsin, is a state-managed public reserve created for hunting and the conservation of native species. Land purchases began in 1945, and the area was formally established in 1956 as a Federal Aid Fish and Wildlife Restoration Project, reflecting the broader mid-20th-century growth of publicly managed habitat and recreation lands. The project boundary covers 2,007 acres, with the state owning 1,427 acres and the rest made up of leased land or other protected tracts. Its habitat is diverse, with white oak, red oak, and American elm, and it also contains invasive plants such as garlic mustard, buckthorn, crown vetch, autumn olive, and wild parsnip.
