Support Zoo A Wild Affair Gala JEFF CORWIN
Along with CNN’s Anderson Cooper and Dr. Sanjay Gupta, Jeff co-hosted the highly acclaimed documentary PLANET IN PERIL in 2007 which examined our changing planet. Scheduled to debut in November 2008 on Animal Planet, The Vanishing Frog with Jeff Corwin represents a partnership between Animal Planet and The Clorox® Company who have joined forces to focus worldwide attention on the deadly fungus that is destroying frogs and other amphibian populations around the world. Now an expert in rainforest animals, Jeff was first introduced to the tropical rain forests in 1984, while on an expedition to Belize. The experience fueled his interest in the study and conservation of these ecological marvels. In 1993, Jeff addressed the General Assembly of the United Nations regarding the need to conserve neotropical rain forests. By 1994, Jeff had served as expedition naturalist for THE JASON PROJECT, the acclaimed documentary series produced by National Geographic and EDS under the direction of Robert Ballard. When not in the field, Jeff lectures on wildlife, ecology and conservation to audiences across the United States. Jeff also established an interactive museum and environmental education center called the EcoZone, based in his hometown of Norwell, MA
