Ted Turner Visits Momentum!
The Boulder-based Prairie Dog Coalition recognized philanthropist and businessman Ted Turner as "Prairie Dog Protector of the Year". Ted was recognized for his work to bring back native wildlife populations at the seventh annual “Living on Burrowed Time” gala, held at the St Julien Hotel on October 28th. Momentum's co-founders, Kevin & Jenny Natapow, who sit on the board of the Prairie Dog Coalition, welcomed Ted for a brief visit to Momentum. Ted stopped by after meeting with local officials and Prairie advocates at his restaurant, Ted's Montana Grill, just down the street. Turner, who founded CNN in 1980 and chairs the nonprofit Turner Foundation, owns several ranches that contain more than 11,000 restored acres that are home to more than 150,000 prairie dogs. “It is our duty to protect these animals on our land -- not only because… it was their home before it was mine, but because these animals are absolutely essential to the health and well-being of surrounding species, as well as to the land itself,” Turner said in a prepared statement.
