Meet Liam and Lola, our two siamangs. Siamangs are known for their incredibly powerful calls, amplified by a large throat sac that inflates like a balloon. These vocalizations help strengthen pair bonds, defend territory, and communicate across dense rainforest canopies. 🎶

On July 24, teens from Denver Zoo Conservation Alliance and Cheyenne Mountain Zoo came together at Daniels Park for a day of learning, stewardship, and connection as part of our Great Plains grassland restoration efforts.
Guided by DZCA`s Field Conservation team, participants rolled up their sleeves to contribute to restoration work, learned about the vital role of bison in maintaining healthy grasslands, explored conservation career pathways, and connected with peers who share a passion for protecting wildlife and wild places. By creating opportunities for young people to learn alongside conservation professionals, and one another, we are helping build the relationships, skills, and inspiration that will shape the future of conservation.
Thank you to everyone who made this day such a meaningful experience!

Colorado`s oldest conservation bison herd is making history again. 🦬
This summer, DZCA and Denver Mountain Parks are expanding the Daniels Park bison herd onto grasslands they haven`t roamed in over 150 years.
This springEarlier this year, our teams fitted the herd with GPS collars and solar ear tags giving us real-time data on their movements as they explore new habitat on the Highlands Ranch Backcountry Wilderness Area and helping us protect one of the largest untilled prairie ecosystems on Colorado`s Front Range.
“Conservation is a team sport. It`s as much about the people caring as it is about the animals and the environment.” — Dr. Jimmy Johnson, Senior Director of Wildlife Health and Conservation
For generations, these bison have helped restore herds across Colorado and the United States. Now it`s our turn to make sure they have the space to thrive for generations to come.
