Otter Specialist Group Chairman Resigns

Pat Foster-Turley, who was vice-chairman of the IUCN/SSC Otter Specialist Group from 1987 - 1989, and chairman from 1990 until the end of 1993, has resigned from the post. In September 1993 Pat moved from her job with Marine World Foundation in California to take up a new position with United States - Asia Environmental Partnership Program in Washington. She is now totally involved in a busy programme which includes coastal management, coral reefs, mangroves, Pacific Islands, and many other Asian conservation issues. Pat, therefore, feels that she cannot devote sufficient time to her Otter Specialist Group duties.

We wish Pat everything of the bast in her new career. She won't be lost to us altogether, as she intends to remain in touch as an advisor for the group.

At this stage a new chairman has not been formally appointed. The appointment will be announced in the next Bulletin (September 1994) - see the following article.
