Species Conservation

The State Wildlife Action Plan (SWAP) is an expansive resource on the status of some wildlife populations in Colorado, with an emphasis on individual species and their habitats.

CPW staff and key partners with in-depth expertise evaluated over 1400 vertebrates, plants and invertebrates using established criteria to “score” each species. Anyone can now see responses and associated results including those for species that are not Species of Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN).
