Billmeyer Wildlife Management Area

Nature
Billmeyer Wildlife Management Area is a seven hundred fifty-eight-acre protected landscape in Allegany County, Maryland, adjoining Green Ridge State Forest. Created in the nineteen twenties to produce game birds, especially turkeys, it later evolved into an area managed for broader public use, including recreation and hunting. Its listing in the IUCN database as a Type V protected landscape reflects its significance as a deliberately managed environment rather than a strictly preserved wilderness.
