Wyandot Wildlife Area is in northwestern Ohio, one mile south of Carey on U.S. Route 23. Wyandot County Road 97, running north and south through the area, provides the best access to the area. Crawford Township Road 98 borders the area on the east. This 338-acre wildlife area is situated in the glacial lake plain region of Ohio and is relatively flat. The average elevation is 828 feet above sea level, with minimum and maximum elevations of 823 and 840 feet. There are approximately 160 acres of woodland—two portions were cut over in the 1930s and have since grown up in heavy brush, saplings, and pole-sized, oak-hickory timber. Oaks include all the more common species, such as white, black, red, scarlet, swamp white, and pin. The hickories are generally shagbarks and pignuts, with a few butternuts. Associated species are white ash, black cherry, black gum, cottonwood, beech, hard and soft maples, and black walnut. Old field boundaries have been permitted to grow up into natural cover. A small pond of approximately 3/4 of an acre was constructed in a marshy section in the southeast corner of the area. A 15-acre borrow pit on the extreme northern end was created during relocation and construction of U.S. Route 23.
