Sportsmen, Conservation & Ethics
WWF actively works to
portray the image of the hunter conservationist
of the early 20th century. The abundant natural
resources that we enjoy today and the public
lands that help ensure access to them are a
testament to efforts of these early
conservationists.
WWF was integral
in instituting WDFW's Master Hunter Program
which emphasizes safe, lawful and ethical
hunting priorities while upholding the highest
standards. Through these efforts, WWF
hopes to increase public access and
opportunities for outdoor recreation on private
and public lands.
WWF continues
to support the WDFW's Hunter Safety
Program.
These ethics
include the ethic of conservation. Hunters,
fishers, hikers and other outdoor-enthusiasts
all have in common a love of the natural world
and a strong desire to conserve its integrity
and beauty for future generations. This
commonality brings us to work together for wise
stewardship of our lands, habitat and wildlife.
