About The Author
Neil Griffin
Neil Griffin is a writer and naturalist from Calgary, Alberta. Raised on the prairies and trained as a wildlife biologist, for over a decade he tracked the disappearing and the dead of our world, from Canada’s boreal forests to the Amazon basin, from Ethiopia’s Afar desert to the Virunga Mountains of Rwanda, before giving up the glitz and glamour of tropical fieldwork for the financial stability of freelance writing. He holds an MFA from the University of Victoria, where he is an instructor in the Department of Writing.
