Texas Youth Wins Austin Stevens Young Adventurer Award

Higher Calling Wildlife®, the youth conservation outreach founded by wildlife journalist and conservationist Chester Moore has announced the winner of the 2024 Austin Stevens Young Adventurer Award.

The Austin Stevens Young Adventurer Award is designed to honor young kids with a heart for wildlife, adventure and conservation.

Austin Stevens is a huge inspiration for me on a personal level and to many, many people around the world for his heart for wildlife and adventure and his astounding wildlife photography” Moore said.

“We wanted to find a unique way to honor Austin and recognize kids who have the potential to become wildlife conservationists in their own right.”

This year’s recipient is Delilah Hunter, a teen from Texas who has a love for wildlife photography and conservation.

“I met her mom Kat Hunter at the 2022 Women Hunt program of the Wild Sheep Foundation out at the FTW Ranch. As we were talking about our kids, I invited Kat’s family to our facility to see our animals and soon me and my wife Lisa and daughter Faith got to meet Delilah,” Moore said.

“She’s a great young lady who has helped with some of our wildlife ministry work, and joined us on our Higher Calling Wildlife “A Voice In The Wilderness” Expedition in Colorado in 2023. Recently, she helped work on a guzzler project of the Texas Bighorn Society.”

Delilah embodies the spirit of adventure and has had photos published in Texas Fish & Game, Higher Calling Wildlife magazine as well as the 2024 Golden Crescent Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation’s calendar.
