Wildlife Society Branch

Mission

The Wildlife Society of the NZVA was formed to enhance veterinary contributions to the welfare and management of New Zealand's native wildlife, to support research in this field, and to encourage conservation of threatened species.

We do this by:

Assisting in the veterinary management of New Zealand native wildlife through the sharing of general and technical information
Producing the technical publication Kokako and a newsletter three times per year
Running a Google discussion group
Holding an annual conference to share ideas and encourage conservation of threatened species

Membership
