About this listen

Episode 6 of the “It’s In Denver’s Nature” podcast covers habitat protection and Denver Parks and Recreation’s numerous efforts to create healthy ecosystems throughout the urban and mountain park systems. DPR’s Assistant Director of Urban Ecology is joined by the department’s Open Space Operations Supervisor and Education and Wildlife Program Manager along with an Assistant Professor at CSU specializing in pollinator conservation to discuss the importance of biodiversity and native landscapes. The City and County of Denver actively stewards 6,000+ acres of parkland, more than half of which is open space and natural areas ranging from waterways to large expanses of restored prairie. Watch and learn about the many different species of urban wildlife that call Denver parks home, and how these habitats are beneficial to the humans that recreate in them.
