Victor Ernest Shelford (September 22, 1877
– December 27, 1968) was an American zoologist and animal ecologist who helped to establish ecology as a distinct field of study.
He was the first president of the Ecological Society of America in 1915, and helped found the Nature Conservancy in the 1940s. Shelford's early visits and study of Volo Bog in Northern Illinois helped establish its ecological significance.
Volo Bog became the first purchase of the Illinois Nature Conservancy.
