The Importance of One Acre

One acre may not seem like a lot of land to you. But, that 1 acre you dedicate may provide refuge for…

  • persecuted coyotes, foxes, bobcats, and cougars who desperately need safe cover. 
  • a large herd of pronghorn on the run from hunting and poaching.
  • several families of prairie dogs who will never again be poisoned or shot.
  • the Colorado green gentian, a beautiful, flowering plant found only in southeastern Colorado.
  • imperiled swift foxes in search of safe secure denning sites.
  • a host of prairie flowers protected from cows and plows.
  • declining burrowing owl populations that depend on prairie dog burrows for their homes.
  • and, one day, wild bison and endangered black-footed ferrets.
