About This Lease
The primary purposes of Hanging Bog Wildlife Management Area (WMA) are for wildlife management, wildlife habitat management, and wildlife-dependent recreation. This is a 4,560 acre area made up of rolling hills, extensive forests lands, small fields, and marshes. The area is named for the large natural bog on the property. The federal government became interested in the area in the 1930s. Under the Bankhead-Jones Farm Tenant Act, the U.S. Department of Agriculture acquired the area and managed it as a Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) camp. After 1940, the federal government leased the land to the state as a game management area. The land remained under federal government control until 1962 when title to this property was deeded to the State of New York. Also, additional acreage was acquired under the Park and Recreation Land Acquisition Act. The majority of the property was for game management, the remainder went to the Division of Lands and Forests.
