Corn Creek Springs, Mojave Desert, NV
The first evidence of Paleo-Indians here dates from 3,000 A.D. Later Anglo-Europeans colonists searching arid lands for a place to settle found these waters. Their over-excavation for ranching and farming put the springs in danger of extinction, causing much of the endemic wildlife to disappear. With the creation of the Refuge survival of the aquifer was assured. However, It exists within the boundaries of the U.S. Airforce's Nevada Test and Training Range. The military would like to take over most of the remaining Refuge habitat for expanded bombing exercises. With over 500 plant species, 320 bird species, 52 mammal species and over 35 reptile species and 450 recorded prehistoric sites, including numerous petroglyphs and pictographs bombing practice would destroy this unique historic area.
