His association with the "teddy bear" toy dates back to a hunting trip. After no game could be found, someone captured a stray bear cub and offered Roosevelt the opportunity to shoot it. He refused, saying it was "unsportsmanlike". News of the incident spread, including a cartoon drawing of Roosevelt refusing to shoot the cub, tied with a rope. A few weeks later, a state function was held at the White House, and someone, reportedly Roosevelt's wife, had small dolls in the likeness of bears made as card holders for the place settings. The bears were taken home as souvenirs, and the "teddy bear" phenomenon had begun.

Roosevelt died in his sleep at Sagamore Hill after a blood clot had detached from a vein and traveled to his lungs. He was 60 years old. Upon receiving word of his death, his son Archibald telegraphed his siblings: "The old lion is dead." Woodrow Wilson's vice president, Thomas R. Marshall, said that "Death had to take Roosevelt sleeping, for if he had been awake, there would have been a fight.
