We're listening

Abstract

We're Listening Mike Conner, Chair of the Publications Subcommittee of The Wildlife Society (TWS) recently received the results of a questionnaire sent to authors of TWS publications (members and non-members).Over 900 responses were returned that addressed an array of questions ranging from the number of publications submitted to what authors thought of the TWS publications.We appreciate the time spent and the comments from all those that responded to the Publication Committee's survey.You have spoken and we are listening to do our best to improve the Journal of Wildlife Management (JWM).Our objective herein is to go over the highlights of the open-ended question "Do you have any suggestions for how The Wildlife Society should improve its peer reviewed publications?"Over a third (n ¼ 359) of the respondents provided answers to this question; we take all of them seriously and discuss them in order of the number of responses with similar themes.We also discuss the actions that we will be initiating to minimize the stated concerns to improve JWM.
