The sagebrush steppe is North America’s largest ecosystem – spanning 14 states and 2 Canadian provinces. This ecologically rich landscape has a long history of being overlooked, but politics and efforts to conserve it have elevated it to national attention. Learn what makes this ecosystem so important and how species like Sage-grouse, Golden Eagles, Ravens, mule deer and pygmy rabbits will play a role in determining its future.

Daly Edmunds is the director of policy and outreach for Audubon Rockies. She is responsible for furthering the Sagebrush Ecosystem Initiative on a regional scale and works with government representatives, conservation organizations, and community leaders throughout Colorado and neighboring states to do so.

This program is free and the public is welcomed.
