The Colorado Department of Natural Resources announced Nov. 25 that Jeff Davis stepped down as Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) director and will assume a role as a senior policy advisor for strategic priorities with the Department of Natural Resources Executive Director’s Office.
Major General Laura Clellan, retired adjutant general and executive director of the Colorado Department of Military and Veterans Affairs, was named as CPW acting director until Davis’ position is filled.
“Jeff Davis came to Colorado Parks and Wildlife during a period of uncertainty and change with a number of significant wildlife and recreation issues landing at his feet almost immediately,” said Dan Gibbs, Colorado Department of Natural Resources executive director. “He transitions leaving a Division which is in a much better place internally as well as a notable record of achievement and progress in areas of building a stronger culture, wildlife management, and stakeholder involvement and engagement.”
