Las Vegas National Wildlife Refuge | U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service
The Las Vegas (Spanish for “the meadows”) National Wildlife Refuge has many unique features that make it a valuable sanctuary for the natural resources of the southwest and the people of New Mexico. The gently rolling prairies of the east abruptly meet the rugged terrain of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, the Creston, gravel-capped mesas and buttes on the west, and the deep, narrow river canyons of the Gallinas River and Vegosa Creek on the south. The distinct landscape, diversity of biological communities, and secluded location are inherent characteristics that contribute to the area’s value as a natural preserve.
