About Us

EWA's mission is to encourage and expand the conservation of indigenous and non-indigenous hoof stock animals, and to help our Members develop and strengthen the markets for their animals. To accomplish this integrated two-fold mission, the EWA strives to:

* Protect the rights of private property owners, including, but not limited to, the right to manage and control their own land and the indigenous and non-indigenous hoof stock animals living on it;

* Defend the owners of indigenous and non-indigenous hoof stock animals agains the misrepresentations and false allegations of animal rights activists;

* Articulate the need for "sustainable utilization" of wildlife, as a viable tool to maintain proper "carrying capacity" on private property;

* Educate policy-makers, the media, and the public through research and advocacy;

* Foster development of the alternative livestock industry through agricultural diversification into production and marketing;

* Promote "Conservation through Commerce";

* Provide technical support and useful information to our Members, so as to benefit them, their animals, and their industry.
