February 10, 2024On this episode of Wild & Uncut, we join you from SCI’s 51st convention in Nashville, TN! Kristy Titus sits down with Dan Brooks, Rachel Ahtila & Madie Demaske.
Dan joined Safari Club International Foundation (SCIF) in 2015 and has over thirty years’ experience in wildlife conservation and education. He was initially hired by SCIF as a Program Specialist for the Humanitarian Service programs. Dan was promoted in 2016 to the Business Operations Manager to administer the International Wildlife Museum in Tucson, Arizona and continued to manage the Humanitarian Service Programs for SCIF. He was appointed to the Director of Education for SCIF in 2017.
Born and raised in Kelowna, British Columbia, Rachel Ahtila was a “horse-crazy bush kid,” who forged a winding path to becoming one of the most well-known women in hunting. Although she wasn’t raised in a hunting community, her parents gave her a loose rein at the wise old age of 11. She then began traveling north for the summers to chase horses at a remote hunting lodge in the mountain valleys of the Muskwa-Kechika. A full-time guide, Rachel is also a public speaker and published writer. In 2013, she was a Prois Award Recipient, and was nominated as the youngest woman to be on the Board of Directors for the Wild Sheep Society of British Columbia in 2014.
Madeline was born and raised in the foothills of the Colorado Rocky Mountains. Her passion for hunting and the outdoors developed at a young age and has become a driving factor in her legal career. Madeline’s love for the mountains took her to Montana State University where she received undergraduate honors degrees in Agriculture Business and Applied Economics. Madeline continued her education at the University of Kansas where she graduated with a Juris Doctor in May 2021 and became a licensed attorney in the state of Colorado soon after. Since, she has been dedicating her time to the mass denial of Tajikistan Marco Polo Argali import permits, as she has a ram stuck overseas herself. As an avid hunter and conservationist, Madeline offers a unique perspective to wildlife and hunting-related legal issues. She is currently part of SCI’s team of staff attorneys as Litigation Associate.
