Wildlife Outreach Team

The Wildlife Outreach Team (WOT) is a volunteer program led by the Ken-Caryl Ranch Ranger team in partnership with Colorado Parks and Wildlife.

This group of trained volunteers helps educate residents and visitors about living responsibly alongside local wildlife, especially bears and deer. Volunteers may be seen at trailheads, intersections, community events, and throughout open space areas helping share important wildlife awareness information.

Volunteer Opportunities May Include:

• Sharing information about safe wildlife interactions
• Supporting wildlife education and outreach efforts
• Rotating and maintaining educational signage in open space areas
• Helping promote responsible recreation and wildlife awareness

Wildlife Outreach Team volunteers wear official WOT shirts and name tags, making them easy to recognize on the trails. While the team is intentionally kept small, residents are encouraged to stop and ask questions to learn more about local wildlife and open space stewardship.

The Wildlife Outreach Team is directed by the Ken-Caryl Rangers, with training and supplies provided through Colorado Parks and Wildlife.
