The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service manages the Arapaho National Wildlife Refuge, a 23,464-acre sanctuary in Colorado's National Wildlife Refuge System. Established in 1967, the refuge supports diverse wildlife habitats, including sagebrush steppe uplands, grassland meadows, willow riparian areas, and wetlands.

Situated south of Walden, Colorado, at elevations ranging from 8,100 to 8,700 feet above sea level, the Arapaho National Wildlife Refuge is known as the highest refuge in the lower 48 states. As part of the National Wildlife Refuge System, it works to conserve, protect, and enhance fish, wildlife, plants, and their habitats for the benefit of the American people.
