About

The New Jersey Chapter of The Wildlife Society was founded in 1972 by the late Dr. James (Doc) Applegate. We host two biannual member meetings to connect professionals across the state and learn about the latest research, policy, and techniques in wildlife, ecology, and natural resources management.

Mission

As outlined in our bylaws, the mission of the New Jersey Chapter of The Wildlife Society is to foster excellence in wildlife stewardship through science, outreach and education to ensure responsible conservation of wildlife resources.
