Introducing… Jeff Follett
Jeff Follett has had a different career path to the average wildlife biologist. ‘It’s certainly not been a direct line,’ he says. Born and bred in the US state of Minnesota, he completed a bachelor of science degree there majoring in fisheries and wildlife management. When he graduated, ‘everyone in my course had a hard science degree and wanted to go out and work with wildlife’, but Jeff and his wife took a different path. They joined the Peace Corps, (the American equivalent to Australia’s Volunteers Abroad program) and had a long stretch working overseas on humanitarian programs. They had two years in South America, where Jeff worked with an agricultural organisation, and worked in agroforestry.
Thank you, Tony!
‘You’ve got to think like a corella – get inside their head’. That’s how Tony Goodwin, who has been a wildlife management officer with Avisure for just under 11 years, describes his approach to managing over-abundant little corellas.
