Hoboken, N.J., January 26, 2011—Wiley-Blackwell, the scientific, technical, medical, and scholarly publishing business of John Wiley & Sons, Inc. (NYSE:JWa and JWb), is pleased to announce a partnership with The Wildlife Society to publish its journals, The Journal of Wildlife Management, Wildlife Monographs, and the Wildlife Society Bulletin, beginning in January 2011.

The Journal of Wildlife Management is published eight times a year and serves as a major source of knowledge and original research in wildlife science, management, and conservation. Published since 1937, it aims to enhance the ability of wildlife professionals to conserve biodiversity, sustain productive ecosystems, and ensure the responsible use of wildlife resources for the benefit of society.

Wildlife Monographs supplements The Journal of Wildlife Management with focused investigations in all phases of wildlife management and conservation.

Relaunching in March 2011, the Wildlife Society Bulletin will publish peer-reviewed papers that explore the practical application of scientific research in wildlife management and conservation.

"This partnership will bring new benefits to our members, especially through the relaunch of the Wildlife Society Bulletin as an online-only publication," says Michael Hutchins, Executive Director/CEO of The Wildlife Society. "Wiley-Blackwell's diverse wildlife-science publication portfolio, their global reach, and their commitment to sustainability make them a natural fit as our publishing partners."

"Our unparalleled presence in the fields of ecology, conservation, and zoology, placed alongside the expertise and the global standing of The Wildlife Society, will make for a very effective and beneficial partnership," said Patrick Kelly, Vice President & Journals Publishing Director, Life Sciences, Wiley-Blackwell. "The Journal of Wildlife Management is one of the world's leading scientific publications, and we believe that through initiatives such as a newly enhanced journal home page, this partnership will raise the journal's profile even higher."
