Colorado Rangelands
This site is co-sponsored by the CSU Libraries and the Department of Forest, Rangelands, and Watershed Stewardship in the Warner College of Natural Resources at CSU. We are a partner in the Rangelands West, which is a collaborative effort among Western Land Grant Universities to create an electronic network which provides seamless access to distributed sources of rangeland information. This Web site is maintained by the Colorado Rangelands Team composed of rangeland experts, and the natural resources librarian. The Colorado Rangelands Web site is a centralized resource with an integrated interface. We are a partner in the AgNIC Alliance, which is a national effort to create an electronic network that will provide seamless access to distributed sources of agricultural information, subject area specialists, and other resources in a manner in which the physical location of these resources is transparent to the user.

The Web site concentrates on wildlife damage management science. Wildlife causes damage to agricultural, urban, natural resources, human health and safety and threatened or endangered species.
