The presentation abstract submission deadline has ended on the 15th of September. You can still submit your presentation, however we can not guarantee the reviewing of your abstract. 

The conference will feature a series of parallel sessions, with presentations lasting 20 minutes. Participants can present their latest research, innovative projects, and fieldwork experiences related to wolves. We believe your expertise and insights would be a valuable addition to our program, and we would be honored to have you share your work with our audience.

​

This is an unique opportunity to contribute to the global understanding of wolf biology, behavior, ecology, and conservation efforts. By presenting at the Wolves Across Borders Conference, you will not only showcase your research and work but also engage with fellow experts and practicioners, fostering collaboration and inspiring future initiatives.

​
