Corey Mosen is extremely passionate about wildlife, conservation and photography. Throughout his career in conservation, he has had many adventures involving various creatures and various characters, some of which feature in the pages. Here, among many other stories, Corey recounts how he got his foot in the door within the realm of conservation, how he trained his now famous canine companion, Ajax, to be a kea-nest-finder extraordinaire, how he almost lost his head during an altercation in the highlands of Papua New Guinea and how he learnt to fly a helicopter. Each story is illustrated with photos taken while working or volunteering at conservation opportunities in New Zealand and around the world.
As well as giving the reader a taste of what nature has to offer, this book also provides some insight into what might be expected for anyone thinking about pursuing a career in conservation, working with wildlife or keen on exploring wild landscapes around the world.
