We seek to provide a willing, skilled and knowledgeable volunteer work force to augment the Division of Wildlife staff and programs, provide training and exposure to wildlife management, and, as a result, cultivate informed citizen support for the wildlife of Colorado. The Volunteer Program is designed to help Division personnel accomplish their duties and to give volunteers an opportunity to participate in and learn about the management of wildlife in Colorado. We are fortunate that there are volunteers with the interest, ability and willingness to work with us on projects of all kinds!
We also want you - the people who pay the bills and own the wildlife- to see what the Division of Wildlife does firsthand. We hope that in working with us you can learn about wildlife and wildlife management in ways you never could from book or video.
As the public becomes more involved in managing wildlife-influencing local land-use decisions, providing input to the Wildlife Commission and even the ballot box- an understanding of the needs of wildlife and management options will promote informed decision making.
