Dear Colleagues

We are glad to announce the first circular of the XI International Otter Colloquium. The meeting will be hosted by the University of Pavia on  1-5 September 2010. It will bring together scientists, practitioners and policy makers from all parts of the world. The circular is also downloadable at the web site of the University of Pavia  http://www-1.unipv.it/webbio/iucn11otter.pdf.

These are both exciting and challenging times for conservationists and we expect XI IOC to be an event that will remembered as a milestone for otter conservation!
