Instructions to authors

 

The idea of the newsletter is to alert people with an interest in camelid management to ongoing work, developments in the political arena, new conservation/ sustainable use initiatives, and any other pertinent news.  In general, short pieces of text (200‑300 words) are invited, which relate to your work. However, longer more in-depth contributions are also welcomed.  These latter ought to be kept to below 1000 words if possible, plus photos/graphs and tables.  Though Wild Camelid Management is produced by the MACS project, anybody with an interest in Wild Camelids may offer a publication.  Subject addressed could include,. for example:

 

  • Research issues, context and approaches

  • Progress reports

  • Discussion of ongoing controversies

  • Latest updates

  • Research results

  • News about non‑MACS research and political developments

  • Vicuna market news

  • and anything else you can think of ‑ this is your newsletter.

 

Contributions can be in English or Spanish or both.  Ideally, there should be a brief summary in the other language, but this is not obligatory.

 

Also, please send me lots of pictures of your activities (preferably by email).

 

If you would like to discuss any ideas, please do not hesitate to contact me.  I would like all contributions to be emailed to me by the end of March.
