All interested participants are now invited to submit papers for inclusion in the 17th Working Meeting program. Both spoken presentations and posters are welcome. Instructions to authors are available for both spoken presentations and posters.

Authors should refer to the session titles in the current program overview for guidelines on general topics for papers.

To help us finalize the Working Program, the organizing committee would appreciate early notice from authors wishing to present particular papers. Recognizing that late submissions are often unavoidable, every effort will be made to insert late submissions into the Working Program. However, there can be no guarantees that late papers will be accepted and in most cases preference will be given on a first-come-first-served basis. The deadline for submissions is 1 April 2004. Abstracts for the program booklet must be sent to Adam Britton no later than 13 May 2004. Final manuscripts for the proceedings must be received in electronic or hard copy no later than 29 May 2004.

Anyone interested in attending who has not yet registered can find registration application forms here, or by writing to Charlie Manolis. Applications can be returned to Wildlife Management International by mail (PO Box 530, Sanderson, NT 0813, Australia), e-mail, fax [61 (0)8 8947 0678] or through the secure online server. Payment may be made at the time of registration, or deferred until shortly before the meeting.

Further information can be found on this website, including a variety of accommodation options, details on field trips, and local information about the meeting venue. Questions regarding any aspect of the meeting should be sent to Tom Dacey.
