Put your boots on because it’s time to head over to Montana’s Rocky Mountain Front. On the Club’s Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Ranch , we’re a tad voyeuristic when it comes to wildlife there. From elk to mule deer and badgers to bears, there are plenty of claws, teeth, antlers, and horns to catch on camera.

Caught on Camera
The network of trailcams used by researchers on Boone and Crockett Club's Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Ranch in Montana captures some amazing stills and videos.
For five months in 2022, a trail camera posted on a fence next to a riparian area caught the intimate travels of both predator and prey.
