The park also includes 20 miles of the lower Niobrara River and 8 miles of the lower Verdigre Creek\, both of which are tributaries of the Missouri River. Established in 1978\, the stretches of the river that Congress designated as Wild and Scenic flows fast and wide through shale and chalk bluffs where willows and cottonwoods\, and bur oak trees flourish. Wildlife is abundant. Bald eagles\, deer\, turkey\, piping plovers and least terns are among those often seen along this significant flyway for migratory birds. \n\n \n\nRiver of Change was produced by Argentine Productions of Mt Lebanon\, Pennsylvania\, under contract with the National Park Service. The production features amazing aerial and scenic views of the river\, up-close wildlife photography\, and interviews of people that call the river their home and place to recreate.
