Dr. Lee Foote

The ACA Board of Directors has provided me the privilege of serving as the Academic Representative on the Board. Since 2002 I have helped with conferences (Chronic Wasting Disease Conference; Wildlife Handling Workshops; Conservation Hunting). Since 2003 I have been the Director of the ACA Grants in Biodiversity, and have served as a co-chairman of the ACA Grant Eligible Committee for 4 years. My work with the US Fish and Wildlife Service, Utah Department of Fish and Game, US Geological Survey, as a private consultant, and for the last 8 years as an Associate Professor of Conservation Biology at the University of Alberta.

I am married to an environmental sociologist and have two wonderful daughters that love to accompany me and my lab to the goose pits. I thoroughly appreciate the chance to give something back to the renewable resources that have buoyed me up for my whole life and helped make me who I am. I look forward to the next year with new building, Managing Director, and new Program Agreements in place. ACA is truly on a roll!
