These photos are indicative of the great beauty found along the Chunky River. With a rich past and a troubled present, the lands and waters need our respect and care to offset the careless destruction that has been done over many years. This small river is a haven for wildlife, a major ecosystem in itself. Those of you who own land along the banks of the Chunky River can do much by securing a conservation easement through the East MS Foot-hills Land Trust. These easements can be indivi-dually tailored to suit your needs and ensure the protection of your lands down through the generations.
