Thrilling adventures in wildlife conservation from "the Indiana Jones of Biology" (Entrepreneur) Few can claim their work impacts everyone on earth, but Forrest Galante is one. As a wildlife biologist and conservationist, he dedicates his life to studying, rediscovering, and protecting our planet's incredible lifeforms. Part memoir and part biological adventure, this debut book celebrates the beauty and resilience of our world, alongside the brave conservationists striving to save it. Galante takes readers on an exhilarating journey to remote, dangerous corners of the globe, recounting miraculous rediscoveries of species once thought extinct. His wild life unfolds from his upbringing in Zimbabwe amid civil unrest to globetrotting escapades, including encounters with drug cartels, witch doctors, and vengeful officials. He shares harrowing tales of life-threatening bites, fights, falls, and jungle illnesses, while also exploring the link between wildlife mistreatment and human safety, particularly regarding COVID-19. This narrative is more than a gripping adventure filled with man-eating crocodiles and near-death experiences; it is an impassioned, informative, and inspiring examination of the critical importance of wildlife conservation and how each individual can contribute to making a difference.
