2008 Native Scholarship Program – sponsored by the Native Peoples Working Group of The Wildlife Society

On behalf of the Native Peoples Working Group of The Wildlife Society, I would like to announce the 2008 Working Group Tribal Scholarship
Program. This scholarship is a competitive scholarship being offered to any member of a Native American/First Nations Tribe currently enrolled in a natural resources related field.

Through a generous donation from the USDA-APHIS and the Little River Band of Ottawa Indians, the Native Peoples Working Group is offering scholarships to selected students to attend the 2008 Annual Conference of The Wildlife Society in Miami, Florida from November 8-12, 2008.

The Native Peoples Working group will be hosting a Tribal Symposium titled Tribal Natural Resource Management in a Changing World from 8:00 a.m. to 12:10 on Monday, November 10 for all conference attendees.

Scholarship funds will be used to purchase airline
tickets to and from the conference, conference registration as well as hotel accommodations for the week of the conference. All Tribal/First Nations’
members currently enrolled in a natural resources related field are strongly encouraged to apply.

How to Apply: Please mail or email your responses to the contact information provided below. Submissions must be postmarked no later than

Essay: The Native Peoples Working Group of The Wildlife Society is dedicated to enhancing the knowledge and technical capabilities of
wildlife professionals in natural resources as they affect native communities. We promote native projects and programs that benefit wildlife
resources and enhance wildlife management opportunities for native people. We encourage public awareness and appreciation of traditional
knowledge and viewpoints of native cultures regarding wildlife and wildlife management. Our goal is to enhance an understanding of the full
range of cultural, spiritual and subsistence values of wildlife to native people. In what way will your education and experiences provide and
