Corwin is the host of AnimalPlanet's "the Jeff Corwin Experience." He's a naturalist and an environmentalist.

Last night I attended a lecture he gave here to an audience of about 800 people. It was part of a lecture series that has an eclectic appeal.

Anyway, he was funny and informative. He brought out some exotic animals and spoke engagingly of a number of problems facing wildlife today. If you get a chance to see him live, I'd recommend springing for a few dollars and going.

(And the lead-in film of his mishaps handling wild animals was both funny and frightening. His encounter with a large fer-de-lance snake was really scary.)

That's cool, he's one of my favorite animal guys. The one I can't stand is Brady Barr. He is going to be eaten live by something one day on camera, a la Grizzly Man Timothy Treadwell.

Hi Jim3k,

Do you know if there is a video of his lecture? I'd love to check it out. I think Jeff is pretty cool even though he's afraid of monkeys.
