Welcome to the Nebraska Chapter of The Wildlife Society’s webpage. The Nebraska Chapter is a consortium of folks whose common thread is an interest in the unique wildlife resources that can be found, studied or otherwise enjoyed in Nebraska. We are dedicated to supporting science-based conservation and fostering communication between a wide variety of wildlife students, practitioners and educators. In addition, we host an annual meeting in the state with presentations centered around a common theme.
