Tallgrass prairie once covered 170 million acres of North America. Today less than 4percent remains, mostly in the Kansas Flint Hills. Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve protects a nationally significant remnant of the once vast tall grass prairie.
Welcome to Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve's Facebook page, administrated by National Park Service volunteers, partners, fans, and employees. Our goal is to share what's happening at the Preserve. Visit www.nps.gov/tapr/ for more park information.
Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve is a public/private partnership dedicated to preserving and enhancing a nationally significant remnant of the tallgrass prairie ecosystem and the processes that sustain it; preserving and interpreting the cultural resources of the preserve and the heritage associated with the ranch property; and offering opportunities for education, inspiration, and enjoyment through public access to its geological, ecological, scenic, and historical features.
