The Raptor Research Center at Boise State University, in partnership with the Bureau of Land Management and the Idaho Army National Guard, will host the 4th installation of the Morley Nelson Snake River Birds of Prey National Conservation Area Symposium on Oct. 25 and 26, 2022.

The two-day symposium of talks, poster presentations and collaboration focuses on the Morley Nelson Snake River Birds of Prey National Conservation Area and showcases research, conservation-based projects and partnerships in order to facilitate interactions and research development with university students, local agencies, NGOs, private corporations and the general public.

Resource professionals, students, and citizen scientists will present short project summaries (15 minutes with 5 minutes for questions) to expand on the historical work done in the conservation area, stimulate new questions and partnerships and identify data gaps that need to be addressed in the future.

Topics may include but are not limited to: soils, vegetation, restoration, wildlife, raptors, recreation, human dimensions of natural and cultural resources, climate change, resource management or other topics relative to the Natural Conservation Area. The symposium will facilitate interactions with university students, local agencies, NGOs, private corporations and the public. The target audience includes students, current and future conservation professionals, and citizen scientists.
