Centre for Wildlife Conservation

Growing threats to the global environment have reulted in an increasing loss of biodiversity and elevated rates of extinction. Changes in public perceptions and legislation, including a commitment by the EU to halt biodiveristy loss by 2010, have led to an increased demand for graduates with the knowledge and skills to manage the conservation of animal species and halt the decline in biodiversity. The centre has a dedicated staff| base, outstanding location, and an enviable record of getting graduates into employment.

The centre has a rapidly growing research portfolio| including work on brown bears in British Columbia, butterflies in Borneo, fish and invertebrates on the Great Barrier Reef, and squirrels in Cumbria. We cooperate with a wide range of partners such as the Forestry Commission, Forest Research, the Wildlife Trusts and the Freshwater Biological Association.
