Keith Warren Applauded for ‘Deer & Wildlife’ Activism
NEW BRAUNFELS, Texas –-(AmmoLand.com)- Host of the popular Deer & Wildlife Stories outdoor program, Keith Warren received wide-sweeping gratitude and praise for his public support for the deer farming industry at the annual North American Deer Farmers Association (NADeFA) Conference held last week in Toledo, Ohio.
Warren was a guest speaker at the event and has been a longtime proponent of the deer industry.
“Preserving our outdoor lifestyle and agricultural pursuits is extremely important, and I’m very proud to promote the state and national organizations which are working every day to improve the quality of our deer herds across North America,” says Keith Warren.
“Our Deer & Wildlife Stories program is informative and educational as we address issues such as deer overpopulation, habitat management and conservation. Whitetail deer are undeniably the star of the show, but we also feature many of the hard-working men, women and their families who make up this exciting and growing industry.”
The NADeFA Annual Conference was held in Toledo, Ohio, and featured more than 250 exhibitors and nearly 1,000 deer farmers, elk breeders and other wildlife professionals from across North America. In addition to special guest speakers like Warren, the event hosted several fund-raising auctions, educational seminars, antler and photo contests, dart gun competition, venison tasting competitions, and much more.
According to Economic Impact Study of the United States Cervid Farming Industry by Texas A&M University, the deer (aka cervid) industry includes nearly 10,000 facilities, mostly in rural areas of the nation. and generates $3 billion of economic activity while supporting nearly 30,000 jobs. These results highlight the fact that the cervid farming industry continues to be a vital contributor to the rural economies of the United States.

Through his television programs, special guest appearances across the country, Facebook and other venues, Warren stresses to sportsmen the importance of ‘taking the High Road,” not only within the industry, but in their every day lives as well. The High Road is a positive message that focuses on the privileges that Americans enjoy because of those that blazed the trail of freedom.
