Call for Presenters

Abstracts for oral presentations and posters are invited for the 5th Biennial Northeastern Transportation and Wildlife Conference. Focal topics can be research, planning, monitoring, design, and/or active conservation.

Abstracts do not necessarily need to address one of the suggested topic areas listed above but a clear link to wildlife conservation and transportation planning in the northeast must be justified. All presenters must register and pay the appropriate conference registration fee. Registration information will be available after June 1.

Opportunities for Participation
