What is a wetland?

Colorado's Ducks

The Prairie Pothole Region is critical to Colorado waterfowl hunters.

The vast majority of our annual duck harvest migrates to us from the Prairie Pothole Region, also referred to as "the duck factory."

The Prairie Pothole Region is DU's #1 conservation focus area. In addition Colorado benefits from DU's Southern Great Plains, Colorado Plateau, and High Country Wetlands Initiative conservation work as the organization continues to conserve critical waterfowl habitat in our state.

There is no waterfowl conservation organization that represents the needs of Colorado waterfowl hunters like Ducks Unlimited. Our vital conservation work provides support to our migration both on the breeding grounds and here in the Centennial State.

With your help, we will preserve our waterfowl hunting heritage through habitat conservation of these areas vital to the Colorado migration and harvest.
