Chris St Peters is a conservation and environmental educator. He has been working in the public school system for over 8 years as a supply and kindergarten teacher. During those 8 years he learned that friendship is not exclusive to humans but our wildlife neighbours too.

When he turned 28, he learned where Bumblebee queens hibernated and began his journey to become an Ecologist. In that time, he has been trained as a snake handler, snake curator, bee keeper, farm hand, conservation champion, conservation educator, worked for several outdoor education facilities, and launched his own program “Adventures with Nature”.  

Chris’ goal is to work with the power of friendship and bring communities together with their wildlife neighbours.
