The Bobcat Draw Badlands is embraced by a rugged western landscape with uniquely eroded cap-rock mushrooms, spires, arches, goblins, castles and mud caves. Rich colors of orange, purple and red are layered throughout the broken, eroded topography of this Willwood geologic formation. The National Park Service has identified some of these formations as potential National Natural Landmarks. Along streams in the east and north parts of the area badlands give way to broad, grassy bottoms, while high plateaus dominate the southwest corner. The site is home to pronghorn antelope, wild horses, mule deer, bobcats, fox, burrowing owls and chukkars. It provides crucial habitat for wintering mule deer, golden eagles and nesting sage grouse.
