Introduction

The International Symposium on Wildlife Utilization in South Africa (ISWU) is a biennial symposium dealing with veterinary involvement in wildlife management. It serves as a platform for leading speakers, both local and international, in the fields of Veterinary and Natural Sciences, to address veterinary students on a host of wildlife management topics and the role of the veterinarian in wildlife utilization.

Symposium Committee (SYMCO 2009) has already stared preparations for ISWU 2009. We believe that once again, it will be an enormous success and will be a fantastic learning opportunity. It is also a great opportunity to network, making contacts with veterinary professionals and students from all over the world.

SYMCO 2009 is endeavoring to make the symposium in 2009 an unforgettable event and we anticipate the involvement of a wide variety of leading speakers from all facets of the wildlife industry in Southern Africa.

Veterinary students worldwide are invited to attend this exhilarating symposium, which will run from the 27th of June to the 12th of July 2009.
