Pretty Rock National Wildlife Refuge is an National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) in the U.S. state of North Dakota. Pretty Rock NWR is an easement refuge and is on privately owned land, but the landowners and U.S. Government work cooperatively to protect the resources. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service oversees Pretty Rock NWR from their offices at Audubon National Wildlife Refuge. This isolated refuge is south of New Leipzig, North Dakota and has been known as a temporary resting place for migrating whooping cranes. In 2002, six adults and one juvenile crane were spotted on the refuge.
