There were a number of individuals who offered time, energy, expertise, and perspective which helped to shape the development of the list of zoological conservation priorities at CNHP. For agreeing to assist with this effort, we are extremely grateful to the following persons: Dave Armstrong, Kevin Bestgen, Carl Bock, Mike Carter, Ken Giesen, Geoff Hammerson, Hugh Kingery, Fritz Knopf, Ron Lambeth, Lauren Livo, Chuck Loeffler, Carron Meaney, Kirk Navo, Tom Nessler, Chris Pague, Bob Righter, Bruce Rosenlund, Chris Schultz, Gary Skiba, Hobart Smith, Jay Thompson, John Toolen, Lee Upham, Ron West, and Bruce Wunder.
