Following previous international symposia of the Wetlands International/IUCN-SSC Swan Specialist Group – held at Slimbridge (UK, 1971), Sapporo (Japan, 1980), Oxford (UK, 1989), Virginia (USA 2001), Easton, Maryland (USA 2014), and Tartu (Estonia, 2018) – we are delighted to announce that a joint 7th International Swan Symposium and 26th Trumpeter Swan Society Swan Conference will be held at the Snow King Resort, Jackson, Wyoming on 24 – 27 October 2022. This symposium is hosted by The Trumpeter Swan Society and the Ricketts Conservation Foundation, in partnership with the IUCN-SSC Swan Specialist Group.
The programme is still in development, but will include a 1-day mid-conference excursion. Delegates are also able to visit the National Parks independently before and after the conference, with further information on options to be provided later on this year.
Abstracts can be submitted until 15 March 2022. Details, including registration information, will be provided on The Trumpeter Swan Society website.
