Wilson told me once that my work was important for today's conservation biology and I almost fainted, I wish I had asked him to sign something (it was at Harvard's Biogeography Symposium a couple years ago), or at least take a wonderful photograph like this one.

He was happy to have someone ask him to sign it. He went to sign a blank page because he couldn't sign his name on the same page where Darwin's name was. But I insisted he do so! Wilson drew an ant on the back of a business card (not his, but of the fellow in Bozeman who got Wilson to come visit Montana State Univ.) while at a luncheon with him and other fortunate students.
