The Wildlife Society serves up a large variety of wild game

Staff Report

The Wildlife Society offered diners an ultimate feast of wild game on Saturday, March 27 in the Morgan University Center. The food featured a variety of foods such as venison chili, frog legs, and turkey soup.The dishes were killed and prepared by members and friends of the Wildlife Society.

Also included with the $10 ticket was the chance to enter the raffle, which offered prizes such as wildlife prints and outdoor related items such as fishing poles. With about 35 in attendance, president Christ O’Bryan was more than pleased with this year’s turn out. Both APSU students and non-students were in attendance, and everyone enjoyed the atmosphere, conversation and good food.

O’Bryan and the other members of the Wildlife Society put a lot of time and effort into organizing this year’s event. “A lot of student chapters hold dinners,” says O’Bryan. “It’s a great way to reach out to the public and raise awareness. We always have a lot of fun doing it.”

This was the second annual Wild Game Dinner held by the student chapter of the Wildlife Society, a professional society dedicated to wildlife research and sustainability. It is the largest fundraising event of the year, and the proceeds go to the development of the chapter. Currently, there are about 20 members in the society, which was founded in 2007.
