Paul Rosolie is an author, conservationist, and adventurer. He's written two books. His first book, Mother of God, is about the years he spent in the Peruvian Amazon. He recounts stories of wrestling down giant anacondas, plunging in the river after caiman, coming face-to-face with jaguars, and solo journeys deep into uncharted parts of the jungle. Paul's second book The Girl and the Tiger  is a beautiful story about a girl in India who finds a tiger cub. The book addresses many of the important issues with tiger and elephant conservation in India. Paul was the star of a 2014 nature documentary special on the Discovery Channel called Eaten Alive. In the show, he was going to be eaten by an anaconda in the Amazon. The show drew a lot of criticism from many groups, and even Paul himself who wasn't happy with the way it turned out. But he explains that it was a massive learning experience and he remains dedicated to his conservation efforts. Paul is a very passionate conservationist, but he has a different perspective than many others. He is the co-founder of Tamandua Expeditions, which takes visitors of tours into the Amazon. He also founded JungleKeepers, which hires locals as rangers to help protect the Amazon and stop illegal activities like logging or poaching. about Paul here: www.rolliepeterkin.com/paul-rosolie-anacondas-amazon-conservation-ecotourism Website: http://paulrosolie.com/ Instagram: http://instagram.com/paulrosolie Tamandua Expeditions: https://tamanduajungle.com/ JungleKeepers: https://junglekeepers.com/ Mother of God: https://amzn.to/2XVBLI8 The Girl and the Tiger: https://amzn.to/2PMSI2X ------ As always please feel free to reach out to me on social media!
