Hide Profile

American Committee for International Wild Life Protection (ACIWLP) was founded in 1930 for the purpose of promoting the conservation of wildlife in its original habitat and the protection of vanishing species of birds and mammals in all parts of the world except the United States. ACIWLP was an independent organization representing the leading natural history museums, zoological societies, and conservation organizations in the United States including the Boone and Crockett Club, the American Museum of Natural History, and the New York Zoological Society.

.A central office was located at the Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University until 1938 when it was moved to the New York Zoological Society. During the early 1960's the office moved to the American Museum of Natural History, and in 1974 ACIWLP was reorganized as the American Committee for International Conservation.
