We've joined a citizen petition to the Colorado Parks & Wildlife Commission calling for protections against the unregulated recreational shooting of prairie dogs on Colorado's public lands. Prairie dogs are a keystone species — over 120 other species depend on them — and their colonies are already under siege from plague and habitat loss. The CPW Commission has the authority to act. We're asking them to use it. → Read the petition: https://cpw.widen.net/s/cl9xslrhql/prairie-dogs_website

We're also bringing prairie dogs into the classroom. For just $50, you can help us reach an entire class of kids with hands-on education about why these little guys matter to Colorado's grasslands.

Jeez, this feels like a death. This final paragraph in the article about how they’re using their final resources, I think hurt the hardest:

“The corporation said its “orderly closure” would include distributing remaining funds and supporting the American Archive of Public Broadcasting in its efforts to preserve “historic content.” It added that it has partnered with the University of Maryland to preserve its own archives, which the corporation said would be made publicly available.”

Not to be dramatic, but any right wing company that tries to buy up gut and monetize the corporation for public broadcasting should be firebombed.
