ICTWS is seeking a MEDIA Chair

Do you or does someone you know enjoy graphic design, creative outreach, and have experience or interest in website and/or social media content creation and management? Are you tech-savvy and interested in communicating about wildlife in Idaho? Are you looking to get involved in ICTWS but unsure about running for a board position or joining a committee? No elections are necessary for this role. We anticipate this position will require 1-2 hours of the individual’s time per month, but likely a little more in the weeks leading up to and during the Annual Meeting (March 2-6, 2026). Some knowledge or experience with Google Workspace tools (Gmail, Docs, Slides, Sites, etc.) and/or Canva is beneficial but not required. Please contact idahochaptertws@gmail.com for more information or to suggest someone who will be a good fit! 

NEW ICTWS Mentorship Program

The Idaho Chapter of The Wildlife Society is pleased to announce its brand new Mentorship Program! This initiative has been jointly developed by the ICTWS Membership and Student Affairs Committees. We are continuing to seek wildlife professionals interested in becoming mentors and encourage students and others interested in becoming mentees to visit the Mentorship Program page and reach out to a mentor today!

ICTWS Archives now hosted by U of I Library Special Collections

A few years ago, the board of the Idaho Chapter of The Wildlife Society provided the University of Idaho Library Special Collections with the hardcopies of the chapter's correspondence, newsletters, and meeting information from 1964-2016. These materials have now all been digitized and are publicly accessible! We are glad to have this project officially completed and excited to share the finished product with our members. We greatly appreciate the efforts of the University of Idaho Library Special Collections and especially the previous ICTWS officers that made this possible!
