About NWTF
Since its inception in 1973, the NWTF has provided the foundation for wild turkey conservation throughout North America. From the first research project funded in the 1970s, to the multimillion-acre restoration initiatives going on today and everywhere in between, conserving the wild turkey and preserving our hunting heritage has always been — and always will be — the backbone of the National Wild Turkey Federation.
About the NWTF Team
Sean Langevin, Northeast Director of Annual Giving
Sean was born and raised in Greene NY, a small upstate NY town with deep roots in hunting and fishing. An avid hunter, Sean has had the opportunities to hunt in many states throughout the country. His favorite part of turkey hunting is taking others out, especially introducing new people to the sport. After attending SUNY Cobleskill and graduating with a bachelor’s degree in wildlife management, Sean began his career at the NWTF and has been there ever since.
Zac Morton, National Director of Annual Giving
Growing up in the mountains of North Carolina, Zac cut his teeth on Appalachia turkey hunting. As a young boy his father taught him the ins and outs of chasing gobblers and the importance of giving back to conservation. After graduating from Appalachian State University, Zac has now worked for the NWTF for 14 years, demonstrating his passion for turkey hunting and the NWTF.
Doug Little, Director of Conservation Operations in the East
Doug’s educational experience began at Paul Smith’s College with an AAS in Ecology and Environmental Technology, followed by a BS in Environmental and Forest Biology from SUNY ESF at Syracuse, and an MSC in Wildlife and Fisheries Science at Mississippi State University, where his thesis focused on opinions and attitudes of spring wild turkey hunters on wildlife management areas throughout Mississippi.
Prior to his role with NWTF, Doug also worked for the PA Game Commission as a biologist providing advice to private landowners, and the NY State Department of Environmental Conservation as a Senior Regional Wildlife Biologist, managing the deer and wild turkey programs in Suffolk County on Long Island. Doug began his career with the NWTF in 2005 as a regional biologist covering NY and New England and has since become the Eastern director of conservation operations.
