Advocacy and Education

They say actions speak louder than words, but words are still pretty darn important. At First Lite, we feel that one of the most important ways we can help protect wildlife, wild places and out hunting heritage is by speaking up and helping to inform our customers about conservation issues. Whether this is an Instagram post about Idaho hunting regulations, a letter to a legislator about a national wildlife bill or an educational video about CWD testing, our voice is a significant contribution to the conservation conversation.
