Conservation Takes a Village

Nine Colorado groups and individuals have been honored as "Conservation Heroes" for their outstanding contributions to land, water and wildlife conservation.

Linda Lidov, director of membership and communications for Keep it Colorado, said the awards are meant to spotlight the collaborative vision and strategy which go into protecting Colorado's healthy vibrant landscapes, wildlife habitat, and local farms and ranches.

"Sometimes we don't realize all the work that goes into making those places special," Lidov observed. "Protection or conservation of those lands and the wildlife that live there doesn't just happen by itself. It takes a lot of work behind the scenes."
