The Society’s Wildlife Publication Awards recognize excellence in scientific literature of wildlife biology and management issued within the last three years. The publications selected are characterized by originality of research or thought and a high scholastic standard in the manner of presentation.  Six categories of research or management-oriented publications are eligible for awards: book, edited book, article/journal paper, monograph, student paper, and biography/history of wildlife biology. Fishery publications are excluded since these are the prerogative of the American Fisheries Society.

The first Wildlife Publication Award was presented in 1940, just three years after the founding of The Wildlife Society.

AWARD NOMINATION PROCESS AND CRITERIA

Each year, works published during the prior three years are eligible to be considered for the award. To nominate a publication for consideration, click here to learn about the criteria and the nomination process.

Nominations must be submitted each year by March 1 at 11:59 PM EST.
