Paradise Marsh Wildlife Area is a 1,588-acre protected marshland in Columbia County, Wisconsin, assembled beginning in 1962 to improve waterfowl habitat and managed by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. Considered a satellite of Horicon National Wildlife Refuge, it reflects changing approaches to wetland management. After being drained by the early 1900s and further altered by ditching and excavation, the marsh was later stabilized with a dike and water-control structure to reduce damage. Its landscape includes native hardwood and savanna trees, while ongoing management addresses invasive plants. The area also supports trapping and hunting, showing its dual role as wildlife refuge and actively restored habitat.
