May 2013 featured article now available
WILDLIFE BIOLOGY (Wildl. Biol., ISSN 0909-6396) was initiated in 1994 by the Nordic Council for Wildlife Research (NKV) and is published four times a year (March, June, September and December).
WILDLIFE BIOLOGY is a high-quality scientific forum directing concise and up-to-date information to scientists, administrators, wildlife managers and conservationists. The journal encourages and welcomes original papers, short communications and reviews written in English from throughout the world. The journal accepts theoretical, empirical, and practical articles of high standard from all areas of wildlife science with the primary task of creating the scientific basis for the enhancement of wildlife management practices. Our concept of 'wildlife' mainly includes mammal and bird species, but studies on other species or phenomena relevant to wildlife management are also of great interest. We adopt a broad concept of wildlife management, including all structures and actions with the purpose of conservation, sustainable use, and/or control of wildlife and its habitats, in order to safeguard sustainable relationships between wildlife and other human interests.
All papers are reviewed by at least two referees with recognised competence within their field of research and by an Associate Editor appointed by the Editor-in-Chief to be responsible for editing the manuscript. All articles appear with both the dates of receipt and final acceptance and with the name of the Associate Editor.
Submissions will be considered on condition that publication (in any language) is first offered to WILDLIFE BIOLOGY, and that the authors agree to automatically transfer the copyright to the publisher (©Copyright 2012, WILDLIFE BIOLOGY, the Editorial Office), if and when the manuscript is accepted for publication.
Supplements to the journal in the form of monographs etc. may be published, but all costs related to the production of supplements are to be paid by the orderer/author. The Editor-in-Chief should be contacted prior to submission of supplements. Supplements are treated in the same way as other submissions.
