We have an obligation to give as well as receive and to embody an inclusive culture. The complete sportswoman can skin a deer, land a burly brown trout, navigate in the wild, and she knows her game commissioners and politicians, knows wildlife laws, defends all wildlife, advocates on their behalf, and teaches others these skills. We cannot expect the next generation to enjoy the privilege of our irreplaceable lands, waters and wildlife without our explicit engagement in all facets of the sporting conservation life. Artemis embodies the definition of the complete sportswoman and sees it as our duty to use our platform to promote and teach this philosophy. Do you have or want these skills and this network?

The health of these lands and waters is paramount to the future of hunting and angling. Right now the very premise of public lands owned by all Americans is under attack. We will defeat these short-sighted attempts to rob the American people of our public lands. Artemis will vehemently defend these lands and waters and work to keep them healthy and accessible for ours and future generations. Learn More 2 Iconic Species We celebrate and protect all wildlife species and their habitats and yet we know certain species are many people’s first introduction into hunting and fishing such as the mule deer and the cutthroat trout. Mule deer are facing precipitous declines from development, fragmentation of migration pathways, and several other factors. The cutthroat trout—the only trout native to the Intermountain West—has been reduced to only a small fraction of its native range. The protection and conservation of these two species are of paramount importance to hunters and anglers. We support those working on behalf of mule deer and cutthroat trout and support policies that protect them and the lands and waters they need to thrive. Learn More 3 Leadership Development We are at a crossroads in the history of American conservation and must develop new leaders. Our voices will strengthen the impact of all hunters and anglers on conservation by bringing sportswomen to the table in a way that has never been done before. We will set examples of ethical hunting and angling, and break stereotypes that limit open dialogue and prevent inclusion of new voices into the ranks of the sporting community. We envision a time when all people return to the norm where outdoor experiences are daily activities that create lasting memories, traditions, and stewardship of our precious natural resources. Women are essential to this generational project. We support women currently holding wildlife and conservation leadership positions and work to encourage and foster women in leadership roles.
