Located in south-central North Dakota, Kulm Wetland Management District was established in 1971. Located in the Prairie Pothole Region of North America, Kulm Wetland Management District provides breeding, nesting, and brood rearing areas for many species of waterfowl and other migratory birds. The District currently manages 201 waterfowl production areas that total {{convert|45683|acre|km2}}, 3 national wildlife refuges that are easement refuges (Bone Hill NWR, Dakota Lake NWR, Maple River NWR), and {{convert|120000|acre|km2}} of wetland and grassland easements. The District's headquarters is in Kulm, North Dakota.

In many parts of Kulm Wetland Management District, the abundance of wetlands attracts waterfowl breeding pair densities of over 100 pairs per square mile. Native prairie is still well represented in the area and is home to many species of upland nesting birds. The James River meanders through the eastern portion of the District. As it leads south to the Missouri River, the James River forms a major migration corridor for numerous migrating birds.
