Wild Friends
Win Conservation Award!
The
Wildlife Society (New Mexico Chapter) presented its 2003 Conservation
Award to the Wild Friends, at the 37th Joint Conference of the New Mexico
and Arizona Chapters, in Safford Arizona, February 2004. Wild Friends
were recognized for their "Outstanding contributions to wildlife
conservation in New Mexico." Wild
Friends students adopt compelling wildlife issues, initiate legislative
bills or memorials, and work to advance them through the legislative
process. Solutions developed by the Wild Friends are a "win-win
for both wildlife and humans," said Mark Watson, Awards Committee
Chair and New Mexico Game and Fish habitat specialist. The Wildlife
Society is a well-known national organization of professional biologists. |
