		The Upper Mississippi River and Tallgrass Prairie Ecosystem is a large and ecologically diverse area that encompasses land in the States of Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, and Wisconsin.
		The Mississippi River and the tributaries have always provided an important haven and migration route for fish and wildlife, but because of the continuing loss of wetlands, loss of forests, expansion of urban and agricultural areas, navigation, and channelization of many rivers, its importance has greatly increased in recent history.
		Dams continued to be built on the river for navigation purposes until the 1930s, when the last of a series of navigation locks and dams was installed in the stretch from the Twin Cities to Alton, Illinois.

		Many, however, remained in Minnesota and Mississippi River valleys, and their raids still made the lakes of the upper Mississippi unsafe for the Ojibway.
