Avon Grove Wildlife Preserve

The Avon Grove Wildlife Preserve is a section of wilderness enclosed within Avon Grove which houses many species of endangered animals. Goat herders routinely bring herds of goats to the grasslands twice each year to eat the Avon Grove grass. Birds of paradise also routinely come to the preserve to lay eggs and raise their young. Since the young are flightless, they are seen following their mothers for several weeks because she doesn't feel like sitting in her nest.

The preserve has remained a source of tourism and biological research for many years.
