JOSEPH HUMPHRIES
I have been an outdoor enthusiast all my life. As a youth I first got exposure to hunting with my father and friends growing up on Vancouver Island, BC. In the early 2000’s I got immersed into the world of being a dedicated hunter and conservationist. I attended my first Wild Sheep Society of BC convention and fundraiser in 2012 and have been sucked into the world of Wild Sheep Conservation ever since.
​
In 2016 I was first elected to the board of directors with the WSSBC and the following year was elected to the executive (I am still trying to determine if this was a promotion or demotion 😊), where I have continued to serve ever since. In 2017 I relocated Whitehorse where my family and I have immersed ourselves in the vast outdoors where adventure is only a step away. In 2018 I was elected to served on the board as a director with the Yukon Wild Sheep Foundation where I have remained in some capacity to the present day.
​
While I have only been a mountain hunter for a less then a decade, I can surely say that its true, “That after your first sheep hunt you know whether or not YOU ARE A SHEEP HUNTER”. I am a sheep hunter, but I am a wildlife conservationist and am passionate to ensure we do everything we can to ensure Wild Sheep populations grow and stay healthy for future generations to enjoy.

AARON PETTITT
Michael was born and raised in Whitehorse and fortunate to be part of a family with a keen interest in exploring the territory through various outdoor pursuits. However, hunting wasn't introduced to him until his twenties. Since then, it has become an integral part of his lifestyle and the greatest excuse for staying active and traveling to new and familiar places in the Territory.
​
The challenging and addictive qualities of sheep hunting and respect for where these animals live have led to his interest in conservation. His goal is for all interest groups to collaborate on obtaining a greater understanding of the wild sheep populations in the Yukon and supporting wildlife management practices that ensure wild sheep populations remain healthy while maintaining hunting opportunities for current and future generations.
As a born and raised Yukoner I have been truly fortunate to hunt with family and friends from an early age and have had incredible opportunities to hunt the wilderness of the Yukon. As a wildlife conservationist, my goal is to serve on the board of the Yukon Wild Sheep Foundation in order to sustain healthy wild sheep populations, promote sound wildlife management, ensure that wild sheep and hunting opportunities will endure, and try to give back to the resource that has given me so much. I am member of the Yukon Fish & Game Association, a Life Member of the Yukon Wild Sheep Foundation, a member of WSF, and a Registered Professional Biologist (BC/AB).
