Paul Rosolie Keynote Speaker

Paul Rosolie is a naturalist, explorer, author, and award-winning wildlife filmmaker. For 17 years he has lived in threatened ecosystems and specialized in rare species in countries like Indonesia, Brazil, South Africa, India, and Peru.

In the Amazon, Rosolie has spent extensive time traveling with poachers, documenting the illegal trade in endangered species. Rosolie’s memoir on Amazonian wildlife and exploration, Mother of God, was hailed as “gripping” by Jane Goodall, and the Wall Street Journal applauded Rosolie’s environmental call-to-arms for its “rare immediacy and depth!”

Paul is also the founder of Junglekeepers Peru, an organization that focuses on protecting threatened habitat in western Amazonia and to date, Junglekeepers protects over 55,000 acres of primary forest.
