Joint Meeting With Wyoming Chapter!

This year we are excited to provide you with an opportunity to meet and/or get reacquainted with our Wyoming colleagues!

  • The Colorado Chapter of the Wildlife Society will hold our annual conference at the Hilton on Prospect Road in Fort Collins, Colorado March 4th- March 7th 2025.  We are excited that this year’s meeting will be held jointly with the Wyoming Chapter of the Wildlife Society.  The  theme of  this year’s meeting is “Fire and Ice: wildlife in a changing west.” However, Oral or poster presentations on any pertinent wildlife or habitat-related topic will be considered. In addition to all presentations aligning with the conference theme, we are interested in submissions related to Conservation Stories. Specifically, presentations in this category need not be research-oriented, but will tell stories about wildlife conservation challenges and how folks tackled them through management solutions, collaboration, outreach and communication, planning, etc.

  • Conference registration is open as of January 1st, 2025. See link above. Early bird registration closes February 5th 2025.

    INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMITTING AN ABSTRACT:  Abstract submissions are now closed. Keep an eye out for an email from us in January notifying you whether your Abstract has been accepted.

    STUDENT PRESENTATION AWARDS: Students at all stages (undergraduate, MS, PhD) will be eligible for evaluation for presentation awards (traditional-length talks and posters, but NOT lightning talks) at the conference. Feedback from judges will be provided to students at the end of the conference
