OSHR 1859 - Selected Wildlife Treasures: A Colorado Naturalist’s Primer

  • Noncredit

Some of Colorado’s wildlife lives in other states, other countries, and even other continents; some of Colorado’s wildlife lives nowhere else but here. Whether global, continental, regional, or local, every wildlife species possesses its own story of life and death and of connectedness.

Knowing specific details about a species - a bird that through migration links three continents and three oceans or a mushroom that founded a major religion - can enrich the experience of finding and engaging it. When that happens, life itself becomes a destination. "Wildlife Treasures" will present natural history stories about a blend of animals, fungi, and plants, all of which can be easily found in the state we and they call home.
