Boone and Crockett Club Records
The Boone and Crockett Club was the United States’ first hunting and big-game conservation organization. It was founded by Theodore Roosevelt in 1887 and continues to this day. This online collection contains scans of content held at the University of Montana’s Archives and Special Collections.
The mission of the Boone and Crockett Club is to promote the conservation and management of wildlife, especially big game and its habitat, to preserve and encourage hunting and to maintain the highest ethical standards of fair chase and sportsmanship in North America. Among its many activities, the Club advocated for passage of conservation laws and policies such as the Alaska Game Law, the establishment of Glacier and Mt. McKinley National Parks, a bill to enlarge Yellowstone National Park, and many forest reserve and game refuge bills. The Club was able to lend effective support to conservation efforts due to its number of notable members, including Aldo Leopold, Gifford Pinchot, Theodore Roosevelt, Grinnell, Charles Sheldon, John F. Lacey, Stephen Mather, Jay N. “Ding” Darling, and many other prominent conservationists.
