About this unit
AI-compiled · sourcedEast-central Mississippi county anchored by the Chunky River corridor, Lauderdale County offers gently rolling pine-hardwood hills and river bottom hardwoods in a landscape that transitions between the Piney Woods and the Tennessee Hills country to the northeast. The large Meridian metro area drives moderate hunting pressure and private lease demand, but the river bottoms produce quality deer and turkey that reward persistent hunters. Chunky River WMA is the main public land anchor for hunters without private access.
