The Faculty of Environmental Protection in collaboration with partner organisations (University of Primorska, Faculty of Mathematics, Natural Sciences and Information Technologies; University of Ljubljana, Biotechnical Faculty; Julius Kühn Institute; Hunting Association of Slovenia and Slovenian Forestry Institute) is organising the 14th European Vertebrate Management Conference (EVMC 2025), which will take place in Ankaran from 12 to 16 May 2025.
The conference is the next step in a chain of previous meetings known as EVPMCs, but this time with an added focus on inclusivity to all vertebrate species as well as different management issues, including ecology, monitoring and conservation. The conference will focus on the latest and the most exciting topics covering a wide range of disciplines such as Ecology, physiology and behaviour; Taxonomy and genetics; Population monitoring and management; Human-animal conflicts and social dimension; (Invasive) alien vertebrates; Crop and urban systems; Health, zoonotic pathogens and parasites; Rodenticide resistance; New tools and methods.
With more than 200 contributions from researchers coming from over 40 countries, EVMC 2025 will bring together a diverse international community of experts to share experiences, present new discoveries and build collaborations that will shape the future of vertebrate management.
