About the Ulysses S. Seal Award

Ulysses S. Seal’s great passion and talent was his creative thinking about how new science could be most effectively applied to solving the problems of wildlife conservation. His contributions were amplified many times over by his further ability to recognize, encourage, and utilize others who also were making such innovative contributions. The CPSG has chosen to honor Ulie by creating the Ulysses S. Seal Award for Innovation in Conservation.
