Conservation in Colorado
State Wildlife Action Plan
Our State Wildlife Action Plan (SWAP) is the guiding document for Colorado Parks and Wildlife and its conservation teams as we strive to make all decisions with conservation in mind. It details our greatest conservation needs.

Conservation in Colorado
Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan
The five year Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP) reflects the shared vision and commitment of Colorado outdoor partners to advance recreation enjoyment and conservation of Colorado’s outdoor resources.
Wildlife Recovery Plans
While the State Wildlife Action Plan allows us to prioritize projects for species and habitats, recovery and conservation plans help Colorado Parks and Wildlife coordinate with other agencies on wildlife recovery efforts.
