In 2014, a Colorado couple bought land to build a family ranch; by 2025 bird species had risen from 29 to 37 and grassland-bird detections doubled from 178 to 356

Lance and Lisa Wheeler's Colorado ranch has transformed into a sanctuary for grassland birds, boasting a remarkable doubling in species detection since 2019. Their innovative farming methods, coupled with adaptive grazing strategies, promote rich habitats that support diverse wildlife. As evidenced by a 26% increase on the ranch's Bird-Friendliness Index, this holistic approach successfully merges livestock management with conservation efforts.
