Protecting Habitat for Wildlife

The San Luis Valley is a haven for wildlife—from sandhill cranes and migratory birds to elk, pronghorn, and rare native species. Conservation ensures these habitats remain connected and intact, even on private lands.

Why It Matters:

• Preserves migration corridors and breeding grounds

• Supports threatened and endangered species

• Maintains ecological balance and biodiversity

• Builds connected, climate-resilient landscapes

The Impact:
Conservation easements protect key habitat on private land, ensuring the Valley remains a haven for wildlife today—and a legacy for tomorrow.
