talk: Wildlife

Welcome

Thanks for visiting talk: Wildlife

I have been a wildlife enthusiast, some would say obsessive, since I had the good fortune to visit Kruger National Park when I was twelve. The two-and-a-half days I spent in the Park were part of a school trip whilst living in South Africa.

I still have vivid memories of the  experience, which included bumping into a male Impala in the camp. There was less than two-meters between us and, being only 12 years-old, it was easily as tall as I was. Even though it was well armed with impressive horns, I can’t remember feeling scared. I do remember a buzz of excitement which may have been the trigger for my love of wildlife. I am still very passionate about wildlife and get a real kick out of talking to people about it.

I strongly believe that we only care about the things we have a knowledge and understanding of. I also believe that if people are exposed to nature, they will learn to love it. I have therefore devised a number of natural history activities for families, schools and groups designed to introduce the incredible wildlife we share the planet with and the on-going efforts to conserve it.

Best Wishes,

Allan
