The refuge, located in east-central

miles northeast of Alexandria, and 12 

miles east of Jena, now totals 25,242 

acres. The 6,671-acre Headquarters Unit 

borders nine miles of the northeast 

shore of Catahoula Lake, a 26,000-acre 

natural wetland renowned for its large 

concentrations of migratory waterfowl. 

The 18,571-acre Bushley Bayou Unit, 

located eight miles west of Jonesville, 

was established in May 2001. The
