Cameron Young has had a passion for snakes and other reptiles and amphibians since before he can remember as a child. After receiving his degree in Biology from Earlham College, Cameron worked for almost 20 years as a wildlife ecologist specializing in permitting threatened and endangered species for oil and gas projects across the country. There, Cameron recognized the critical need for a better way to teach biology and conservation to people of all ages. In 2011, Cameron founded the Center for Snake Conservation (CSC), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to changing human perceptions about snakes. In 2018, Cameron opened My Nature Lab, the CSC’s educational facility based in Louisville, CO. My Nature Lab reaches approximately 10,000 people annually with its fun, engaging, and hands-on educational programs. |
