Wildlife Management
Wildlife management is the process of using science to identify appropriate management principles and practices, to develop plans of management and to implement and review these plans.
People involved in this process include scientists, wildlife managers, wildlife users, educators and extension/interpretation officers.
Formation of AWMS
In response to a growing need for a body committed to wildlife management in Australia and New Zealand, the Australasian Wildlife Management Society (AWMS) was established in May, 1988 (view constitution). The Society has about 400 members from all regions of Australia, New Zealand and from other countries. Members come from all sectors of wildlife management and a wide range of institutions and private organisations.
The objectives of the Society are:
- to promote the study and application of scientific wildlife management
- to provide opportunities for discussion and the dissemination of information among members by appropriate means such as meetings, workshops, and publications.
