Formed by hunters and anglers who acknowledged the need to convene and unite all wildlife and conservation interests, the National Wildlife Federation has been leading on critical issues that are a priority to sportsmen and women for nearly 80 years. NWF has a leading role in helping develop the positive image of hunters and anglers in an effort to preserve and foster their role as conservationists of our wildlife. Fish and wildlife depend on today’s sportsmen and women to inspire the next generation of hunters and anglers who will be the stewards supporting sound management of our public resources.
