    The Georgia Department of Natural Resources (DNR) held a ribbon cutting ceremony in Hortense, Ga. Oct. 16. The ceremony was held to announce the acquisition of land for the Sansavilla Wildlife Management area (WMA). The funds for the purchases came from the Georgia DNR conservation fund, the nature Conservancy, the Department of Defense's Enviromental Protection Integration program, and the Marine Corps purchased a restricted use of easement to buffer Townsend Bombing Range. The Sansavilla acquisition will be key in the conservation of the Gopher Tortoise and 12 other species state protected or federally protected.
