Description
Iowa was once covered in sprawling prairies as far as the eye could see, but after white settlers moved to the state, the majority of the prairie was converted to agricultural land. Prairie reconstruction and restoration efforts are essential to preserving and bringing back Iowa's native landscape. The University of Northern Iowa has a long history of prairie conservation and management efforts, culminating in the establishment of the Tallgrass Prairie Center that works with prairies all across Iowa today.
