Conservation classroom: The Boone and Crockett Club's mission to educate the next generation

It’s hard to imagine a better classroom on conservation than in the shadow of Montana’s Rocky Mountain Front.

The Boone and Crockett Conservation Education Program does just that from its headquarters on the Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Ranch along Dupuyer Creek. 

In the classroom students learn about ecosystems, wildlife conservation and land ethics.

In the field students try their hand at shooting sports, fishing, backpacking, packrafting and other hands-on outdoor skills.

With me today is Luke Coccoli, Director of Conservation Programs for the Boone and Crockett Club.

Montana Untamed, hosted by Thom Bridge, covers the state's rugged landscape from hook and bullet to policy and science.
