Author: perkinsk

Assistant Professor Dara Wald reports that she has been invited to be a symposium speaker for the Wildlife Society’s Conference on Expanding Partnerships hosted in Raleigh, N.C. in October. The symposium will explore the communication and management challenges associated with feral wildlife.

Wald and Honors Student Amber Misek have submitted a proposal for the First-Year Honors Mentor Program Grant to explore the effectiveness of empathy- and fear-arousing environmental messages.

Wald also reviewed papers for the upcoming 5th Iowa State University Summer Symposium on Science Communication and the North American Congress for Conservation Biology: Communicating Science for Conservation Action.
