"Each species is a masterpiece, a creation assembled with extreme care and genius."
-E.O. Wilson.

Hello, I’m Chris Wasserman—born in Namibia, raised in South Africa, and forever inspired by the raw beauty of our continent’s wild spaces.

From a young age, I spent countless hours exploring game reserves, developing a deep love and respect for Africa’s iconic wildlife. Nature isn’t just something I admire—it’s part of my DNA.

But alongside the beauty, I’ve witnessed tragedy. One of the deepest heartbreaks I carry is seeing rhinoceros slaughtered for their horns. That pain became my purpose. It drove me to take action, and that’s why I founded **Africa Wildlife Detective**.

This platform exists to **inform, educate, and inspire**. It’s a space where stories meet science, and passion meets purpose—to spotlight endangered species and rally a community that cares enough to make a difference.

Before launching this mission, I spent over a decade working in the global airline industry. That journey took me to more than 35 countries and gave me the privilege of organizing international conferences on five continents. These experiences expanded my view of the world—but my heart always remained close to Africa’s wilderness.

Africa Wildlife Detective is more than a website. It’s a call to action. Whether you're here to learn, share, or get involved, thank you for being part of the movement to protect our planet’s most vulnerable animals.

Together, we can give nature a fighting chance
