Good morning, Baltimore!
The Wildlife Society’s 31st annual conference gets underway in Charm City
Thousands of wildlifers arrived in Baltimore, Maryland for The Wildlife Society’s 31st annual conference. The Out in the Field community welcomed attendees to Baltimore with a walk before the conference started to ramp up.
TWS President Bob Lanka passed the gavel to incoming president Art Rodgers.
Attendees convened at a number of different receptions to catch up, including the Aldo Leopold reception to congratulate the 2024 Aldo Leopold Memorial Award winner Maurice Hornocker, the Canadian Section reception and others. The Oriole bird joined the receptions to meet TWS members.
In other parts of the conference TWS members got to work as sections and chapters met to collaborate on ideas.
Networking and meeting up with new and old friends is an important part of attending TWS conferences. Wildlifers gathered at the Maryland Science Center to network and unwind after a day of learning.
