EWA Mission
EWA's Mission
is to encourage and expand the conservation of indigenous and
non-indigenous hoofstock 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 hoofstock animals living on it;
- Defend the owners of indigenous and non-indigenous hoofstock
animals against 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.
