Contributed papers will be selected by the Vertebrate Pest Council on the basis of scientific merit, newness, uniqueness of topic, usefulness, and appropriateness for the overall Conference program and its objectives. Abstracts received after November 21st, will be considered if space is available.

We understand that the current federal government restrictions have made future travel plans challenging. If you feel there is a chance you will be able to attend, please submit an abstract for consideration for the Conference. If you find that you need to cancel later due to travel restrictions, we will adjust the Conference Program accordingly.

All speakers are expected to submit a manuscript, which is due one month after the Conference. All manuscripts will be peer edited and published in the 32nd Vertebrate Pest Conference Proceedings. The Author Guidelines from the last conference are available for reference, but please check back for 2026 updated guidelines.

A preliminary program for the Conference will be available in December 2025.
