During a recent presentation at the Colorado Chapter of the Wildlife Society, Dr. Cassidy shared insights on what CPW’s monitoring efforts have shown about wolves in the Centennial State.

On Colorado’s inaugural Prairie Day, Shrikes and Bikes brought together 75 cyclists to celebrate eastern Colorado’s shortgrass prairie, working lands, and rural communities.

Colorado Parks and Wildlife aquatic biologists, in conjunction with Denver Water staff, salvaged more than 1,000 trout from Antero Reservoir on Friday and stocked into nearby waterbodies.
