There’s something nice about being next to a river or a lake after a hike, but what is it about water that attracts not only us but our wildlife. Across the state of Colorado, there is a system of water that supports the land and life. Streams, lakes, rivers, reservoirs, and irrigation ditches all make up Colorado’s riparian ecosystem, the waterworks that feed nutrients and water into the land. This water system flows from the highest mountains to the lowest plains, saturating the land so that our wildlife can survive in our semi-arid climate.
