We advocate for a new paradigm in wildlife management that:
Prioritizes conservation of all species – not just game animals – as part of natural ecosystems
Is aligned with public trust principles, i.e. the government has a duty to protect wildlife as a public trust for the benefit of all life, including future generations
Is responsive to the broad public interest in wildlife, not just hunters, anglers, and trappers
Is considerate and respectful of the interests of individual animals, not just populations and species
