SMALL CATS
SYMPOSIUM 2026
Welcome to the Small Cats Symposium 2026
Join us for an international virtual gathering of researchers, conservationists, students, and wildlife professionals dedicated to understanding
and protecting the world’s small wild cat species. From the elusive fishing cat to the endangered Andean cat, small felids face unique ecological and conservation challenges that often go unnoticed.
This symposium will provide a dynamic platform for sharing research findings, discussing conservation strategies, and fostering global collaboration.
It will feature four concise, engaging half-day events of 3–4 hours, each with a different start time to ensure accessibility for our international community.
Whether you’re an expert in the field or just beginning your journey in wildlife conservation, join us!
