RESTORE Colorado Program | NFWF Mule deer herd on Green Mountain, Colorado RESTORE Colorado funds at-scale habitat restoration and stewardship projects on public and private conservation lands in Colorado that have the greatest benefit for wildlife and local communities.
RESTORE Colorado is a partnership among the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation and Great Outdoors Colorado, the Colorado Department of Natural Resources, Colorado Water Conservation Board, the Gates Family Foundation, Occidental, Walton Family Foundation, and U.S. Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS).
Stretching from the rolling shortgrass prairies of the Great Plains to the crest of the Rocky Mountains, and into the canyons of the desert Southwest, Colorado hosts some of the most impressive landscapes and wildlife habitat in the country. At the same time, a rapidly growing human population and increasing demands on public and private lands has strained wildlife and their habitats in the region.
Restoration and Stewardship of Outdoor Resources and Environment (RESTORE) Colorado funds at-scale habitat restoration, expansion and improvement projects across the following habitats and statewide priorities: Watershed resilience (wetlands, riparian and upland habitats including forests) Eastern Colorado grasslands Big game winter range and migration corridors Capacity building for conservation project development and delivery RESTORE Colorado Program 2026 Request for Proposals - CLOSED RESTORE Colorado 5-Year Report Director, Rocky Mountain Regional Office Program Director, Grasslands and Mountain West Program Director, Southwest Manager, Rocky Mountain Regional Programs Coordinator, Regional Programs Elk are large herbivores known for the males' widely branching antlers and iconic bugle-call during fall mating season.

Conservation Partners Program Rocky Mountain Rangelands Program Western Big Game Seasonal Habitat and Migration Corridors Fund Rocky Mountain Rangelands Rocky Mountain Rangelands Business Plan Moose are the largest of the deer species and the tallest mammals in North America.
Their populations are limited to the northern forests of the United States and Canada, and they have thick, insulating fur to thermoregulate during the winter months.

They are the sole-surviving member of their taxonomic family.
With an evolutionary history rooted in open-grasslands, pronghorn are reluctant to leap over fences that have been constructed across the West for rangeland management, causing disruptions of their ancient migration routes and reducing access to high-quality habitat.

Known for its theatrical mating displays on "leks" or breeding grounds, populations have been in decline due to loss of sagebrush habitat, and their ability to serve as an umbrella species for other sagebrush wildlife emphasizes the need to restore and protect their habitats.
