“There are some who can live without wild things and some who cannot.” So said Aldo Leopold, I am one of the latter. When I'm not writing books, I am the Reptile, Amphibian, and Invertebrate Research Leader of the Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission) and the founder and Executive Director of The Alongside Wildlife Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization.
