Lewis and Clark brought a prarie dog back with them.
1805 :)
Lewis and Clark were commissioned by President Jefferson to explore the newly purchased Louisiana Territory. States they passed through would include: Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois, then Missouri, Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Oregon and Washington.
President Thomas Jefferson wanted to see what lay beyond the more he talked to Lewis about it the more curious became.
Lewis and Clark were sent, because president Thomas Jefferson wanted them to explore the other side of the Mississippi river. The French sold the US the Louisiana purchase, which was double the US. They wanted to explore over there and see what they were buying. Also they wanted to see what the Pacific Ocean was like. They wanted to claim the land.
