  • Second Edition
    JANUARY 2015 CONSERVATION TM SPECIAL EDITION MattersSECOND EDITION TM about the GOABC he Guide Outfitters Association of British Columbia (GOABC) was established in 1966 to represent Tthe guide outfitting industry to government, and advocate for science-based wildlife management. The GOABC represents 60-70% of guide outfitters in the province, employs over 2,000 individuals, and is responsible for approximately $116 million of annual economic activity in British Columbia. The vision of the GOABC is a province with a strong and stable guide outfitting industry, innovative wildlife conservation projects led by hunters, and abundant big game populations for all to enjoy, both today and in the future. In an ever-changing conservation landscape, it is critical that organizations like the GOABC take the initiative to host events such as this wildlife symposium. In doing so, we can learn from other jurisdictions, and better understand the differing viewpoints people may have on wildlife management. From the many passionate and compelling speakers who presented at the 2014 GOABC International Wildlife Management Symposium, we were given much to reflect on and help us as we move forward toward our collective goal of healthy, stable wildlife populations. This publication is GOABC’s attempt to capture the spirit and intent of the event’s discussion. It is our opinion that hunters must shift their attitudes from caring about hunting, to caring about all wildlife. In order for us to be successful at maintaining wildlife for future generations, hunters need TM to support long-term management decisions that are good for wildlife and their habitat. The GOABC has always been a strong proponent of the North American Wildlife Conservation Model, which has proven to be an effective framework for managing wildlife that was founded by hunter-conservationists.
