Robbie Kröger Joins Federal Hunting and Conservation Advisory Council
The U.S. Department of the Interior has appointed Dr. Robert "Robbie" Kröger to the Hunting and Shooting Sports Conservation and Access Council. As the founder of The Origins Foundation, Kröger will represent wildlife-associated recreation interests, offering a bridge between global conservation strategies and domestic federal policy on habitat management.
Now leading The Origins Foundation, Kröger focuses on sustainable-use initiatives and field partnerships. He views his new federal role as an opportunity to integrate practical field experience with formal wildlife management discussions. The council, which was recently reestablished by the Department of the Interior, provides recommendations to the Secretaries of the Interior and Agriculture regarding public land access, habitat preservation, and the future of outdoor sporting traditions.
